Right, so if we want to solve this bug, we could add the
ubuntu-serverguide package to the server-ship seed?

I have to say I don't really understand your position: taken to its
extreme your view means that no documentation should be installed with
the server edition. The serverguide binary is not a large one and
personally I think it's a shoein for inclusion - it's the only
document we have which comprehensively describes how to use the
operating system in one place.

But, since I haven't put much work into this document myself, I don't
really have an interest in pursuing it further than that - the server
team should decide. I've only posted on this bug because I perceived
the view of the documentation team to be that this document should be
shipped.
