Package: luasseq
Version: 2.1-6
Severity: wishlist
Dear maintainer,
some time ago the organization of where to put documentation
for TeX related packages has changed. In particular
/usr/share/doc/texmf
is not searched anymore by texdoc.
Do make your documents available to texdoc, please install them
into the proper TDS tree, that is
/usr/share/texmf/doc/lualatex/luasseq
or similar.
In addition, please use
dh_compress -X.pdf
as pdfs are already compressed, so there is no gain, but it helps
texdoc to display the document.
On a side note, you should not need to depend on luatex anymore, but
on texlive-binaries (>= 2014, but lintian will complain because it
believes it is more intelligent than me - lintian needs
>= 2014.20140512.33982
as far as I remember).
Finally, I would like to ask you your opinion how to proceed in
the future. The same files are currently included in the TeX Live
distribution, and contained in texlive-luatex.
There are two options:
- either I remove them from the TeX Live packages and depend on your
package
- or we replace luasseq with a transitional package directing to
texlive-luatex
Please let me know your opinion.
If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us at
debian-tex-maint at lists.debian.org
Thanks for your understanding
Norbert
