indexhtml specfile puts everything correct under mga/indexhtml while doc/HTML
has only one single HTML file; and that's the place where the browser is
expected to go.

See
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/firefox/current/SPECS/firefox.spec
lines 295 and 301 where browser.startup.homepage property is set twice
(duplicate) to doc/HTML/index.html

Btw, using distribution-specific tag "mga" in the path is not good.

So it involves a few other packages that depend on indexhtml (namely:
evolution, midori, links, firefox).

To fix this, I suggest:
 * update and cleanup indexhtml specfile so that:
    - we don't create/populate /usr/share/doc/HTML anymore
    - we move the home page in /usr/share/indexhtml/
    - this is valid for welcome mail path too, we could move these in
/usr/share/indexhtml/mail/ ? or /usr/share/welcomemail/ since we may move them
into a separate package later?
 * so we will need to check dependent packages so that they use the correct
path (however, only firefox and links seems to explicitly use the path in the
spec file, so it may have been hardcoded somewhere else in other packages).
 * ensure it all works

Cc'ing ennael for advice, who last committed on these packages (among others).
I can do the indexhtml part and firefox/links specfile, but not sure about the
rest (mail path, evolution, midori). What about Konqueror by the way?
