Package: www.debian.org Severity: wishlist User: debian-d...@lists.debian.org Usertags: changelog
We want to move the changelog and copyright files from /usr/share/doc/<pkg>/ to the package's metadata (i.e. within control.tar in the .deb file). You should thus try to look for the changelog and copyright files there before falling back to the current location. Since you want to extract both files, the best interface is probably to use "dpkg-deb -e <file>" and get the "changelog" and "copyright" file from the DEBIAN sub-directory. See #681289 for the corresponding policy bug. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (150, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.4-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-www-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
