Why aren’t we using doc-base?
Saturday, March 1st, 2008In November 2007 Roberto C. Sanchez filed bug #451690 in irssi: Please include a doc-base registration file.
Including this file isn’t that hard, and while reading the Debian doc-base Manual I found out that “Every Debian package that provides online documentation (other than manual pages) will register these documents to doc-base.”
So, if a missing doc-base registration file is important enough for someone to file a bug on, why does my /usr/share/doc-base/ only contain 69 files compared to the 1444 files in /usr/share/doc/ ?
