To clarify, 10.10.4ubuntu0.1 *is* the correct version for you to have. My system had a later version installed from maverick-proposed, which had since been retracted and is no longer available. When I removed and reinstalled the ubuntu-docs package, I got 10.10.4ubuntu0.1 too. The difference between your system and mine is that on my system, since the downgrade back to (correct) version 10.10.4ubuntu0.1, I no longer experience the bug.

Packages downloaded and installed using Ubuntu's automated facilities are digitally signed, so unless you were warned, your package is the right one. But just to be sure, I downloaded http://ubuntu.mirror.iweb.ca/pool/main/u/ubuntu-docs/ubuntu-docs_10.10.4ubuntu0.1_all.deb and compared it byte-for-byte against https://launchpadlibrarian.net/63295589/ubuntu-docs_10.10.4ubuntu0.1_all.deb. There were no differences. I also compared against /var/cache/apt/archives/ubuntu-docs_10.10.4ubuntu0.1_all.deb on my system, and there were no differences. If you want, you can download the package from Launchpad (it's a small file so even if you have dial-up that shouldn't be a problem, and Launchpad uses https, so the download will be digitally signed and thus automatically verified) and compare the package in your local cache to it with the cmp utility.
