Package: libgimp-3.0-doc
Version: 3.0.2-3.1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: citizen.1.618 at nym.hush.com

Dear Maintainer,

The following install file produces broken links:

Source: gimp_3.0.4-2.debian.tar.xz:
File:   .debian/libgimp-3.0-doc.links
Contents:
usr/share/doc/libgimp-3.0-doc/reference/Gimp-3.0
usr/share/devhelp/books/Gimp-3.0
usr/share/doc/libgimp-3.0-doc/reference/GimpUi-3.0
usr/share/devhelp/books/GimpUi-3.0

Suggested replacement contents:
/usr/share/doc/libgimp-3.0-doc/reference/gimp-3.0/libgimp-3.0
usr/share/devhelp/books/Gimp-3.0
/usr/share/doc/libgimp-3.0-doc/reference/gimp-3.0/libgimpui-3.0
usr/share/devhelp/books/GimpUi-3.0

Additional issue:
I manually removed the broken links and replaced them with the replacements
above.
For some unknown reason, the API docs for Gimp-3.0 are not showing up in the
*devhelp* application.
This is likely a separate issue.

Thank you!

Randall
