However, under the perspective of packagers,
/usr/share/doc/packagename-version/html can be a very bad choice, since
%doc will install various docs there. I'm not sure about Redhat and Debian,
but for Mandrake docs, %doc directory will be 'rm -rf'ed before placing
any docs there, thus losing all API docs.
