Just a clarification -- I don't think we are "competing" here ;) It is more like "eagerly waiting to start using it". Alternative to the dh_bibref tool for me would be just to get back to that little http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-exppsy/debian-bibliography.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=tools/dbib_collect and make it do the extraction/conversion from /upstream (which will be under /usr/doc/PACKAGE/, right?) indeed having dh_bibref sounds great... my only concern would be -- even if it gets into official debhelper (is that the plan) -- we would need to have it available also from some other package interim to use this feature on existing Debian/Ubuntu releases while backporting packages for NeuroDebian repository. -- =------------------------------------------------------------------= Keep in touch www.onerussian.com Yaroslav Halchenko www.ohloh.net/accounts/yarikoptic -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
