I tested the install script and it works all right in my Debian sid(unstable) box.
However, in a Debian Woody box, it does have some problems.

In Debian Woody(stable), the vim(ver 6.1) docs are originally provided in forms of .txt.gz
After we install our chinese docs, vim still load those English versions.
The reason is that the file ``tags'' is built with those .txt.gz filenames.

FYI,
the output of `ls -l`
(those .txt files are installed by our install script)
