こんにちは。Debian TeX Maint Teamのプライニング ノルベルトです。
I would kindly ask your opinion on the following two changes in the
packages pgf and latex-beamer you are maintaining:
For pgf:
do not compress pgf documentation so that it works properly with
texdoc
For beamer:
- do not compress beameruserguide.pdf
- add a symlink from below /usr/share/texmf/doc/latex/beamer to
/usr/share/doc/latex-beamer/beameruserguide.pdf to make sure
it is found by texdoc (Closes: #357032)
Both target one and only one thing, that users on Debian can use
texdoc beamer
texdoc pgf
as advertised and often recommended to find the right documentation.
There are several issues here: One is that compressed documentation
is still not perfectly supported. This is a problem on the Debian
side since the viewer normally used (xdg-open) is non-blocking
which makes the documentation immediately disappear (the uncompressed
temp file).
The other item is that texdoc does not search outside of the texmf
hierarchy, so we have to link the beamer users guide also into the
texmf tree.
I have prepared NMUs for these two packages, and attach the debdiff for
both.
We would be really grateful if you could upload new versions with only
these changes, and ask for a freeze exception, so that in Debian
stable users have a good experience.
If you prefer that I do an NMU (delayed, immediately), please let me know,
and I will make the NMU and ask debian-release for a freeze exception.
Thanks a lot for your work on maintaining these packages and
どうぞよろしくお願いします。
Norbert
