On the basis of the other comments in this bug, that does seem to be
the easiest solution. However, in relation to the serverguide, it
means that the user may not discover that the documentation is
available to be installed on the system locally, rather than read on
the website - which is kinda the whole point of creating an
ubuntu-serverguide package. However, if it isn't possible to customise
the MOTU for server systems (whether basic server installations or
desktop installations with server packages), then I can't really think
of any other solution.
