Bug#428579: pygtk: Please consider taking python-gtk2-doc on your behalf

Package: pygtk
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
The packages python-gtk2-doc (which one could think "These are the docs for
the python-gtk2 package") are a bit outdated and the average user (like me)
won't notice it until he/she spots the date on the docs (Yes, I didn't look at
the version numbers as I thought both packages came from the same mantainer).

So it'd be nice if the documentation package could be updated to match the
pygtk version available on Debian. And there's no easier way than taking the
package on you behalf if the current mantainer wants to. Or you could NMU (or
whatever this is called) the package to keep it a big more up-to-date. (The
latest wishlist bug on the package is 115 days old ;( )

I tagged this as "wishlist" as it's a wish, but if the documentation package
cannot be keeped in sync with the released versions of pygtk it should **at
least** state so like python-gtk2-tutorial does in its description:

     This document is a "work in progress". Please look for
     updates on http://www.pygtk.org.

If you cannot/don't want to take care of the documentation, please reassign
this bug or open a new one agains the documentation package with the
appropiate priority so it states it's "not-up-to-date status" on a visible
place for lames like me!

thanks,
Marc
