--- Begin Message ---Package: sawfish Version: 1:1.5.3-2.4+b1 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/sawfish Starting from emacs24 -q, C-h f sawfish-mode doesn't have a link button to the sawfish.el source code, whereas I hoped it would. In emacs24 the .el must be in the same directory as the .elc to be recognised as its source code. Recent emacsen policy /usr/share/doc/emacsen-common/debian-emacs-policy.gz section 5 part E asks packages to symlink the .el files to the flavour directory for that purpose. So /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/sawfish would "ln -s" instead of cp, and rm path.el only, leaving the .el source symlink to be removed by /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/remove/sawfish. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages sawfish depends on: ii eterm [x-terminal-emulator] 0.9.6-3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.18.0-1 ii libaudiofile1 0.3.6-2+b1 ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libcairo2 1.14.4-1 ii libesd0 0.2.41-11 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfreetype6 2.6.1-0.1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.32.2-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.46.2-1 ii libgmp10 2:6.1.0+dfsg-2 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.28-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii libpangoxft-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii librep9 0.90.2-1.5 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxft2 2.3.2-1 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.9-2 ii mrxvt [x-terminal-emulator] 0.5.4-1.1+b2 ii mrxvt-mini [x-terminal-emulator] 0.5.4-1.1+b2 ii rep 0.90.2-1.5 ii rep-gtk 1:0.90.0-2.2+b1 ii sawfish-data 1:1.5.3-2.4 ii xterm [x-terminal-emulator] 320-1 sawfish recommends no packages.
