Hello!
I have a Debian package r-doc-html 2.1.0-1 and I can't find the HTML files
of manuals. Contents of the package are:

This links point to them selves. Should I report this to
http://bugs.debian.org/r-doc-html?
I appologize for wrapping.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but not knowing what caused it and seeing the package itself intact I am not sure what alter.
