Hello,
the problem is this:
$ ls -l python-matplotlib-doc_0.98.5-1_all.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 morph morph 91141234 2008-12-16 10:39
python-matplotlib-doc_0.98.5-1_all.deb
90M of doc package is a "little bit"... and expanded it's
$ du . -hs
119M
In this package we install: doc/build/html/
doc/build/latex/Matplotlib.pdf examples/*
So I dig into a bit to identify the cause of such a big jump (0.98.3
has a 16M doc package) and the biggest dir seems to be
html/_static/plot_directive/mpl_examples/pylab_examples with >50M (a
full result of "find examples/ html/ -type d -exec du -s {} \;" is
attached; if you need I can add a full file list). In that particular
dir (like in many other) i see a png, and hi-res png and a pdf file:
are those all needed?
At the end, is there a way we packagers can reduce this package size?
(a fast stat showed it would be the second biggest -doc package in
Debian.)
Thanks,
