[arch-dev-public] The docs/!docs thing again

What are we doing this month with docs? I ask because I was rather
shocked to see this:

dmcgee at kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4
$ pacman -Si gtkmm | grep Size
Download Size  : 14396.06 K
Installed Size : 61660.00 K

dmcgee at kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4
$ du -sh .
50M	.

That means ~80% of this package is stuff almost no-one is ever going
to look at. That seems a bit overkill to me to include in our
packages.
