Bug#405874: gnat-glade-doc's version doesn't match gnat-glade
severity 405874 wishlist thanks Steve Langasek writes: The question is whether the documentation is sufficiently out-of-sync that it's better to let the user consult on-line docs from upstream than to present them with inaccurate docs in Debian. I don't know of any reason why this is the case here, but I don't use gnat at all; Matthias is listed as an uploader, so presumably he has a better idea than I do, so I'll defer to his judgement on whether this is RC. I'm the maintainer and have assessed the changes in the documentation; there are minor editorial changes and a few additions, but nothing ground-breaking and certainly no risk of loss of life or data, or breach of confidentiality. Downgrading to wishlist. PS. The new version, not yet packaged, has with the Invariant Sections being ``GNU Free Documentation License'', with the Front-Cover Texts being ``GLADE User's Guide / GNAT Library for Ada Distributed Environment'', and with no Back-Cover Texts. Does that really qualify as non-free? -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Matthias Klose [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Package: gnat-glade-doc Version: 3.15p-5 Severity: serious gnat-glade is at version 2006-3; should gnat-glade-doc be updated to match the gnat-glade version? Or should gnat-glade-doc be removed from testing before the etch release? Of course it should be updated, but why do you think that this is a RC bug and warrants removal of the doc package? It's not too uncommon that a separate doc package doesn't match the main package's version, but as long as the documentation is still somewhat usefull, I would not regard this as RC. I'm sure we'd have to open more RC bugs if this becomes the policy - e.g. wmaker-usersguide-ps is such a package.
