I think I did a mistake when I renamed all the packages, since
luasocket-doc is the right package. The issue is that the same source
package compiles 

  liblua5.1-socket2
  liblua5.1-socket-dev
  liblua50-socket2
  liblua50-socket-dev
  luasocket-doc

The documentation is a common package, maybe I should call it 
liblua-socket-doc instead of luasocket-doc, but as you see the API (or ABI)
number is usually part only of the non -dev non -doc packages...

Maybe I should call it liblua5.1-socket-doc and add a Provides:
liblua5.0-socket-doc so that a (virtual) package is listed and is
selected the real one is installed...

Better ideas?

Maybe just adding

  Recommends: luasocket-doc

to the other four packages would make it clear that this is the right
documentation.  If you think 'Suggests:' is more appropriate, OK,
but I'm figuring policy says

  The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together
  with this one in all but unusual installations.

and it would be unusual to provide the API without the documentation.

Bug#449560: liblua5.1-socket2: API documentation is not packaged with Debian

2007-11-06 Thread Norman Ramsey
Package: liblua5.1-socket2
Version: 2.0.2-1
Severity: minor

I've looked and I can't find a Debian package containing the documentation at

   http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~diego/professional/luasocket/

This problem is minor but will render the package unusable the next
time I'm on an airplane, which is where I get a lot of my hacking
done.  The size of the doco is small enough that I'd prefer it just be
included, but it would also be OK to create a liblua5.1-socket2-doc
package.

(I have found that luasocket-doc package but both by the naming
convention and by the lack of a 'socket2' I am assuming it is for the
previous version of luasocket.)
