Great, thanks. > oke, so: > i've filed #825620 (ITP: quex), #825623 (ITP: json), #825625 (ITP: usbmon) Excellent. > i've tried to exclude the folders using Files-Exclude, but that didn't > seem to work. i'm now deleting them in override_dh_auto_configure and > override_dh_auto_clean. > as soon as all the dependencies are packaged, i'll file a bug report > about removing the bundled code. The only advantage of Files-Excluded (did you forget the d?) is that you don't need to document the embedded code copies in debian/copyright and that they don't waste space on Debian mirrors. If you've already documented them and are removing them in debian/rules, it isn't worth diverging from upstream by using Files-Excluded. > i don't get the meaning of that last sentence, could you elaborate? The .roff files in the source package are generated files that were built from Markdown files using ronnjs and unfortunately those Markdown files are not present in the source package (but are in upstream git), so the usbguard docs cannot be modified and rebuilt from source on Debian. Personally I would get the .roff files removed from upstream git/tarballs and request the docs always be built from the Markdown source at build time. Upstream uses ronnjs for building, which you could package but there is ruby-ronn in Debian which might also work, you would have to compare the generated .roff files and talk to upstream though to see if that would be appropriate. https://github.com/dkopecek/usbguard/tree/master/doc https://github.com/kapouer/ronnjs https://rtomayko.github.io/ronn/ $ head -n2 doc/* ==> doc/usbguard-daemon.conf.roff <== .\" Generated with Ronnjs 0.4.0 .\" http://github.com/kapouer/ronnjs ==> doc/usbguard-daemon.roff <== .\" Generated with Ronnjs 0.4.0 .\" http://github.com/kapouer/ronnjs ==> doc/usbguard.roff <== .\" Generated with Ronnjs 0.4.0 .\" http://github.com/kapouer/ronnjs ==> doc/usbguard-rules.conf.roff <== .\" Generated with Ronnjs 0.4.0 .\" http://github.com/kapouer/ronnjs > what do you mean by 'how systemd does it'? Documentation in /usr/share/man or /usr/share/doc, default settings in /usr/share/pkg, distro overrides in /usr/share/pkg, sysadmin settings in /etc and per-user settings in ~/.config, with easily installed overrides for every location since each config file has an associated .d directory. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
