Hello!

One case comes to mind when you do want to remove the docs from a source package, and we have at least one such in Deb Med (hmmer2):

* When the source pack does not include the sources for generating the documentation, then that documentation is not DFSG compliant, and
therefore this package can not be included in 'main'.

We then repackage the upstream after removing the docs with no sources, and this then becomes the basis for the Debian source package, which
then can go into 'main'. Also, one should then notify upstream, and ask them to include the sources for the documentation into the package they
distribute.

The deleted, non-DFSG-compiant docs could be packaged by themselves, and put into a 'non-free' package. But this would be a last resort.

Best regards,

Laszlo
