Previous Message by Date: click to view message previewpackages using files in /usr/share/docI ran this command the other day to find packages that use files in /usr/share/doc in their postinsts. When dpkg gets directory exclude support these will presumably all break. They could break today if the admin removed /usr/share/doc in the middle of a dpkg run. I filed bugs on adduser, apt-listbugs, dpkg, libqt3c102-mt, sysvinit, xmcd, and viewcvs. $ grep /usr/share/doc /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst \ |grep -v install-docs |grep -v /usr/doc | less It filters out some things but you have to read it and look for lines that are really accessing /usr/share/doc/. One thing I notcied, and did not file bugs on is a lot of packages do something like this: ln -sf groff-base /usr/share/doc/groff Of course this fails if you have no /usr/share/doc and dpkg has excludes support! I have to wonder why these things are done programmatically in the postinst, instead of just dropping the appropriate link into the data.tar.gz, but I hesitate to file bugs on there as there are quite a few and it doesn't break yet, or really voiolate a tight reading of policy. -- see shy jo pgpLk2hOmy3BX.pgp Description: PGP signature Next Message by Date: click to view message previewRe: /usr/doc/transition: little test to runHenrique de Moraes Holschuh wrote: > Also: > at > crossfire-client-gtk > crossfire-client-x11 > gsfonts-wadalab-mincho > HTML2 > libpgsql2 > lynx > raidtools2 > xscreensaver > xscreensaver-gl If you've not investigated and filed bugs on these yet, I can do it.

They probably screwed up the /usr/doc transition. I have investigated and filed bugs on all of the above already, but there are probably more in packages I have not installed, or did not upgrade from the stable versions and so didn't tickle their bugs. Hmm, still 242 /usr/doc links here out of 971 installed packages.. -- see shy jo pgpwQxrNNVEPU.pgp Description: PGP signature Next Message by Thread: click to view message previewRe: /usr/doc/transition: little test to runHenrique de Moraes Holschuh wrote: > Also: > at > crossfire-client-gtk > crossfire-client-x11 > gsfonts-wadalab-mincho > HTML2 > libpgsql2 > lynx > raidtools2 > xscreensaver > xscreensaver-gl If you've not investigated and filed bugs on these yet, I can do it.
