[Python-modules-team] Bug#691442: python{, 3}-sip-{dev, dbg}: copyright file missing after upgrade (policy 12.5)

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: python-sip-dev,python3-sip-dev,python3-sip-dbg
Version: 4.14-2
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

a test with piuparts revealed that your package misses the copyright
file after an upgrade from sid to experimental, which is a violation of
Policy 12.5:
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile

After the upgrade /usr/share/doc/$PACKAGE/ is just an empty directory.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
(from 'ls -lad /u/s/d/$PKG' and 'ls -la /u/s/d/$PKG/')

  MISSING COPYRIGHT FILE: /usr/share/doc/python-sip-dev/copyright
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Oct 23 06:09 /usr/share/doc/python-sip-dev
  total 0
  drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   40 Oct 23 06:09 .
  drwxr-xr-x 89 root root 1940 Oct 23 06:09 ..
