Package: emboss-doc Version: 6.6.0+dfsg-18 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, The package in question creates the folder structure and supplies some meta-level files, but does not ship any actual documentation. Here is the output of `dpkh -L emboss-doc`: ``` /. /usr /usr/share /usr/share/EMBOSS /usr/share/EMBOSS/doc /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/copyright /usr/share/doc-base /usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.domainatrix /usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.emboss-apps /usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.emboss-groups /usr/share/doc-base/emboss-doc.emboss-qg /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/ChangeLog.gz /usr/share/doc/emboss-doc/doc ``` To get the documentation, I cloned the source of emboss package and copied the documentation manually: ```bash apt source emboss cd emboss-6.6.0+dfsg/ sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/EMBOSS/doc/programs/text sudo cp doc/programs/text/*.txt /usr/share/EMBOSS/doc/programs/text/ ``` After that, `tfm` program from the emboss suite shows text doc files. -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 7.0.12+deb14.1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled emboss-doc depends on no packages. emboss-doc recommends no packages.
