Package: wxwin2.4-examples
Version: 2.4.3.1
Severity: normal
Half of the examples in
/usr/share/doc/wxwin2.4-examples/examples/wxPython/ are gziped.
Please don't gzip them, it makes it imposible to run the examples
directly. I have to copy them to tmp and ungzip them first. (And
some of them have dependencies, so I have to find and copy those too.)
And BTW why are half gziped and half not?
I can see a reason for gzipping images.py, but the rest of them are tiny.
4 files in bmp_source/ 1 file in bitmaps/ and 8 in data/ are also gziped.
I mention them because except for images.py they all are used.
PS. Does the severity reference the source package or the binary? From
the point of view of the source package this bug should be wishlist,
from the point of view of examples it's probably normal/important (since
it makes the examples less useful).

But from the point of view of policy, this is mandated
behaviour and so not a bug. These files are documentation,
you can't run them in place where they are installed, as
some of them write to disk (and you'd need escalated
privs to do that where they are).
If you want to run them, rather than consult them, you'll
need to copy them to a dir where you have read and write
permission and ungzip the ones that were large enough to
be caught by our compressed documentation policy.
I've suggested before that if someone wants to write a
script to do that, I'd consider including it with the
package... That offer still stands :-)
