Package: debian-reference-common Version: 1.11 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/debian-reference
The chapter on tuning a Debian system has several references to woody and sarge (and none to etch). It also describes older versions of X. It would be nice to bring it up to the present. It's also a bit hard to tell about how to do per user customization of, for example, the locale. The chapter describes modifying bash_profile, but I don't think that will help someone using a windowing environment. Even if just to say "Most desktop environments provide ways for users to customize their locale as well" it would be good to say something. bash_profile also doesn't help if you don't use bash, but such people probably should be able to make the necessary translations for themselves. The Debian Reference is a terrific resource; thanks to all of you who work (or worked) on it. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable'), (40, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-k7 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash debian-reference-common depends on no packages.
