Would it be performed by using a configure script to detect where
actually to extract the files to
or
rather by simply copying what's needed by hand ?

err... I'm working on something similiar. Once it's done it should be
fairly easy to port it to detection of separate docs/$ln packages.

I think we don't need to include all of documentation, except
manpages, in the archive. All of documents (with mentioned exception)
should be put in a separate package. That's my personal feeling, but
I'm debian user.
