Except in specific or rare cases (info files, man pages, /usr/share/gnome/help/
files, latex/tex doc) doc files should indeed go in defaultdocdir.

My personnal point of view is that these warnings are not an issue if 
these dependencies are already package dependencies. Otherwise you can
chmod a-x
the scripts to avoid them being executable and having dependencies
extracted. The user should know how to run the scripts.
