Source: netcat-openbsd Version: 1.226-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: dep17m2
Hi! Your package installs nc.openbsd into /bin. For the ongoing Debian UsrMerge effort [1] it should move to /usr/bin in the trixie cycle. I'm attaching a patch to implement such a move. As noted in debian/changelog, the update-alternatives calls are intentionally kept unchanged, to preserve existing user configuration. However, please still read the wiki page on moving files, especially if you intend to backport to bookworm or earlier. The patch has already been checked by a local dumat copy. If during the trixie cycle your package will undergo structural changes or any other file moves, please also see the wiki and upload to experimental first when these changes are done.
