Greg Ferguson indicated that he talked to a RedHat individual who worked on the docs package and was told that it took a fair bit of work to package the HOWTOs in a reasonably sane way and they had limited space on CD. The RedHat 7.3 errata said that Several complaints were received concerning the correctness of the LDP documentation as well as the difference in procedures between the LDP documentation and the official Red Hat Linux documentation. Thus, it was decided to no longer provide the LDP documentation on the Documentation CD Among the popular Linux distributions, Debian, SUSE, Slackware and Ubuntu seem to include the LDP document collection.
