[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#942611: xen-doc: Various text files stored as .txt.gz, but index references .txt

Package: xen-doc
Version: 4.11.1+92-g6c33308a8d-2+b1
Severity: normal

file:///usr/share/doc/xen/html/index.html contains a link to
file:///usr/share/doc/xen/html/misc/vtd.txt (VT-d HOWTO), but that file
doesn't exist. There is a .../misc/vtd.txt.gz file though.
A similar pattern can be found with various other .txt files, but not all.
Since this is HTML documentation and presumably meant to be read in a browser 
(which is what I did), I think those .txt.gz files should be stored as .txt, so
they can be viewed in the browser and it would make the hyperlink actually work.

(Sidenote: I doubt including a file mentioning how to compile your own 2.6.18 kernel 
to include support for VT-d is useful, and it is 10+ y/o, but that's probably an 
upstream issue)
