#730148 dhelp: Doesn't seem to register ffmpeg-doc

Tried to get the ffmpeg-doc directory registered, and it doesn't.
I believe this to be the largest blob of html documenation on my system,
more than other html combined.
I tried the   dhelp_parse -r ; dhelp -i, and also
the ruby script to force ffmpeg-doc to register, no change.
Apologies if I'm misunderstanding anything, or if this is really a bug
in the ffmpeg-doc package, but it would be nice to get ffmpeg-doc
integrated into this system.

Hi,

From the wording of the report, I assume that you have tried to
manually register the documentation package, due to its
discontinuation in Debian. If this is the case, then dhelp is simply
not the tool to do this. The package must be registered with doc-base,
ie the command 'install-docs' must be used.

Please confirm whether this is the case, or the problem appeared in a
normal package installation procedure.

George
