Could it be that it was removed in the postinstall script of pre-installed-documentation-rx34?

Definitely is the post install scripts that removes /usr/share/pre-installed/MyDocs/.documents/ (I know because it made fail the second dpkg --configure pre-installed-documentation-rx34).
The first (and third

) one failed because I had symlinks in /home/user/MyDocs/.documents.
After removing the symlinks, recreating the directory /usr/share/pre-installed/MyDocs/.documents/ with a dummy file, a dpkg --configure pre-installed-documentation-rx34, a apt-get install and a flash-and-reboot I completed the update.
Thanks to maacruz message and this thread I avoided the reboot loop and having to reflash.
I hope next time the pre installed documentation won't cause these problems.
