Do we ?

I'm aware of -docs package because I'm involved enough in the project
and know how to use yum or how to find information. However, I have
never seen (or very little) advertisement around -docs package.
Actually I think the only case that comes in my mind are tutorials and
documentation where is written yum install apache-docs to install apache
(that way the -docs package brings the normal one).

Maybe packageKit pointing out / highlighting package that have
subpackage (such as -docs or -flags) might help this advertisement.

Best regards,

Pierre
