Package: sapphire Version: 0.15.8-9 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch There's an obvious problem here:
# Description: A minimal but configurable X11R6 window manager # Sapphire is a window manager for X11R6. It is fairly minimal in # what it provides on screen: one toolbar, the usual window borders # and a popup menu from the root window. # . # It supports themes as X resource files, and the menu is editable. # If you install the 'menu' package, you'll get an automatically updated # 'Debian' submenu of installed programs. X11R7 was released in 2005. Just doing s/X11R6/X11R7/ would be wrong, since this software clearly isn't tied to any one specific X version; instead I've substituted the more usual expression "X window manager" in the synopsis and "for X11" in the first line of the extended description. There are a couple of other things I would tweak if this text was being standardised to the debian-l10n-english "house style", but there's no need for that; apart from the cobwebs it's all useful information clearly expressed. The one exception is that (in line with the recommendations of DevRef 6.2.2) I've removed the superfluous capitalised definite article from the synopsis. So that's: | Description: minimal but configurable X window manager | Sapphire is a window manager for X11. It is fairly minimal in | what it provides on screen: one toolbar, the usual window borders | and a popup menu from the root window. -- JBR Ankh kak! (Ancient Egyptian blessing)
