# Previously in version 2.3-13 $DOCLINK was a symlink to /usr/share/doc/unixcw.
# Removing this symlink must be handled explicitly so that
# the new version of the package can be placed into a real directory
# there otherwise the symlink will be preserved and the doc files
# will be missing after the install. This is required to upgrade
# from Squeeze to Wheezy. This may be removed after Wheezy.
