Because AFAIK that's not the canonical place where HTML docs are
installed, they are somewhere in /usr/share/doc/.

The additional difficulty, apart of the top-level directory, is that
HTML docs can either be produced as a single file or as separate files
per chapter/section, and then the directory structure (and
correspondingly the job of resolving links) becomes more complicated.

It isn't rocket science to fix this, but it's not something distro
maintainers can do, it's something Texinfo should do, perhaps
consulting with us.
