The root cause if using minimal install:

This system has been minimized by removing packages and content that are not required on a system that users do not log into.

To restore this content, you can run the 'unminimize' command.

If execute 'unminimize' package and after install zabbix-sql-scripts it will install all the scripts. Package should not install files as docs.

path-exclude setting in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/excludes

This one is a known issue. Usually happens with docker containers. These guys have "exclude /usr/share/doc" rule in deb package manager configuration. So, basically, no matter what stuff a package has in /usr/share/doc the package manager will skip it.

Solution? Yeah, probably we should find another place for our SQL files (I wouldn't make an exception only for deb).

Since /usr/share/zabbix is already taken by frontend, I'm thinking about someting like /usr/share/zabbix-sql-scripts

Updated documentation in "What's new" for 6.0.9 and 6.2.3. Additionally, all instances referring to "/usr/share/doc" in documentation have been converted to "/usr/share".
