Package: dblatex
Version: 0.2-2
Severity: wishlist
Currently, /usr/bin/dblatex reads:
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import os
package_base = r"/usr/share/dblatex"
sys.path.append(r"/usr/share/dblatex/lib")
from dbtexmf.dblatex import dblatex
dblatex.main(base=package_base)
Thus, the path to the Python library and to the rest of the
stuff is hardcoded into the executable. However, it'd be nice
if `dblatex' would support overriding the base location of its
components, much like, e. g., `lintian' allows it with either
the `--root' command line option, or the `LINTIAN_ROOT'
environment variable.
I'm currently experimenting with Dblatex vs. UTF-8 output (for
use with Lambda & Antomega) and I'm forced to create my own
`dblatex' script in order to hack the Dblatex' files in my own
(mostly lndir(8)) location, and that's somewhat inconvenient.
