Comment 1 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-20 05:21:40 UTC 
proposed fix:

pkg_postrm(){
    [ -n "${PF}" ] && rm -rf /usr/share/doc/${PF}
}

This doesn't clean up stale directories of previous versions, but is as safe as
possible, imho.
Comment 2 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-21 12:46:57 UTC 
better make that


pkg_postrm(){
    [ -n "${PF}" ] && rm -rf ${ROOT}/usr/share/doc/${PF}
}
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-29 15:49:23 UTC 
This removes the docs for the *current* version if you just re-emerge it.
Comment 4 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2005-09-13 15:35:59 UTC 
I've now changed the scribus-ebuild not to symlink the docs, but to move them 
completely to /usr/share/doc. 
This won't remove old stale symlinks, but it will not create new ones.
