Hi Denis and Josip, Since I got strong rejection from Denis, I will revert this change. I may have stepped over what Josip allowed me to do. Makefile was important but this change is not essential for me.
But please read below and check what is the background of this. I still think this part was not right. Thanks.

I really dislike this change, and hope you won't propagate it to > other documents as well. I think over 50 page long documents deserve printable format. HTML is not the one. If you are offended by the use of PDF, I can do Unix friendly PS too. I am doing this step-by-step. New Makefile uses variants of recursive method (*1) used in the boot-floppies. No broken PDF created at this moment. PDF created are nice. So this change was purely for the aesthetics of printout. Part of the reason for change was I thought this long connected word is not a good practice. (*2) Also please understand that I changed Makefile only after getting approval from their respective maintainers: Josip and Tomohiro. I am not touching others files. For the record: Following words were spelled without spaces in the title. Depends/Recommends/Suggests/Conflicts/Replaces/Provides Required/Important/Standard/Optional/Extra I can assure you that, despite these words overrun right margin in potato environment, PDF is created in the acceptable quality. Regards, Osamu (*1) Simple use of debiandoc2latexpdf are known to be buggy in potato. (*2) It may have been better adding a space only after each slash. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
