Dear Maintainer,
The package in question creates the folder structure and supplies some
meta-level files, but does not ship any actual documentation. Here is
the output of `dpkh -L emboss-doc`:
```
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/EMBOSS
/usr/share/EMBOSS/doc
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/emboss-doc
/usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/changelog.gz

/usr/share/doc-base
/usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.domainatrix
/usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.emboss-apps

/usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.emboss-qg
/usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/ChangeLog.gz
/usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/doc
```
To get the documentation, I cloned the source of emboss package and
copied the documentation manually:
```bash
apt source emboss
cd emboss-6.6.0+dfsg/
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/EMBOSS/doc/programs/text
sudo cp doc/programs/text/*.txt /usr/share/EMBOSS/doc/programs/text/
```
After that, `tfm` program from the emboss suite shows text doc files.
