Follow-up Comment #10, bug #59545 (project groff):
[comment #9 comment #9:] > As I understand it, that is not the purpose of contrib. > > I recently captured that understanding (which is subject to correction by those longer in the tooth than I) in the "LICENSE" file. > > > Files in the contrib/ subdirectory of the source distribution are not > strictly part of groff. That is, they are distributed with it and are > Free Software <https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html>, but they > are not considered essential parts of the distribution. Further, they > may bear licenses other than the GPL or the FSF does not administer > their copyrights.

We can write a smoke test for basic sane operation and go from there. > > Similarly, if it makes sense to move sboxes out of contrib, we can do that. I want to follow up to make sure I'm not misunderstood here. I mean that by not having busgrap or sboxes in contrib, I don't mean not having them in the groff distribution at all, but rather placing them alongside the "main", regular content, i.e., where Deri's gropdf and other contributions already are. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59545> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
