The patch avoids this because __predoc() also uses dodoc(). Ah, I get it. Applied with a bit of rewording of the commit commentary for dullards like myself. Thanks.

The attached patch fixes this and also adds some missing documentation. I applied the documentation change as that is obviously needed.
[PATCH cygport] dodoc: Skip a file if a compressed version already exists
It IMO makes sense to compress large and rarely viewed doc files like change logs. This seems to be common practice on Debian etc. With current cygport, the following results in ChangeLog and ChangeLog.gz in the docdir: src_install() { ... dodoc ChangeLog gzip -9 -n "${D}/usr/share/doc/${PN}/ChangeLog" } The attached patch fixes this and also adds some missing documentation. -- Regards, Christian From 1934651b93cda92207429ac91b964cff220c76d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Franke Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2024 13:56:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] dodoc: Skip a file if a compressed version already exists This prevents that __prepdoc() also adds the uncompressed version of a default doc file if src_install() installed the compressed version. Also add missing documentation about the handling of FILE.md, FILE.rst and FILE.txt. --- lib/src_install.cygpart | 9 - 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lib/src_install.cygpart b/lib/src_install.cygpart index 481457dc..7aca673c 100644 --- a/lib/src_install.cygpart +++ b/lib/src_install.cygpart @@ -162,9 +162,12 @@ docinto() { # DESCRIPTION # Installs the given files or directories into $D/usr/share/doc/PN/, or a # subdirectory thereof specified by the previous call to docinto. +# If a FILE does not exist, FILE.md, FILE.rst and FILE.txt are also +# considered.
