There is no subdirectory public_html/modules/help/teacher in the source
package of wims. The required module should be there. As a matter of
fact, the relevant module is available in a SVN repository distinct from
the repository containing the source of Wims.

If you want to get the FAQ, you can go to the website management
interface (which can be accessed if the url is http://localhost/wims,
with default settings), then choose to download the necessary modules
from upstream.

Currently the weight of all published Wims modules is impressive:
on my machine (which was up to date some months ago), the modules can be
compressed into an archive of 250 MB:

  $ sudo tar czf - /var/lib/wims/public_html/modules/ | wc -c
  258464818

However:

  $ sudo tar czf - /var/lib/wims/public_html/modules/help/teacher | wc -c 
  554830

So, publishing a recommended package "wims-faq" seems reasonable. The
easiest way to make it is: first to update an existing wims service from
the upstream module repositories, then isolate a subset of the modules.

Have you any suggestion to explain such a procedure in the
debian/copyright file of a new package? Or have you a completely
different suggestions to solve this issue?

Thank you.

I fear that this bug will only touch people who do not want to
publish their wims service worldwide. In that case, they probably know
personnally the 'gestionnaire de ce site' guy ;)

Best regards,                   Georges.
