There are two bugs (140697,140699) saying that prepall and prepallman are
invoked automatically by portage.

Looking at prepall it calls:
prepallman
prepallinfo
prepallstrip


What is with prepalldocs? Is it allowed to use in ebuilds? Should it be in
pms? Or is it just missing in prepall?

Thanks.

some people like to install files into /usr/share/doc/$PF/ and not have it be 
compressed

The prep* functions are Portage internals. They're not suitable for
ebuild use and shouldn't be in pms.

incorrect ... prepalldocs is meant for ebuild use
