I'm keeping them where they are (/usr/share/naim/contrib) for now, until somebody comes up with a better place (neither bin nor doc/.../examples are better, nor is a separate package (too much overhead, too little gain)). The FHS and debian-policy seem to allow it, though I'm not too thrilled with it; it just dosn't feel right.

But scripts policy requires a dependency (little d) on non-POSIX shell interpreters -- 4.4 para 2 at the end. > You might want to `suggest' depend on tclsh and mention the > requirement in your README.debian file at the same place you > mention the `example' scripts. Done. A updated packaging is available at http://rtweb.net/theorb/debian/, or will be when this blasted hunk of overweight steel builds it. It also fixes a minor upstream bug, and moves the docs and manpage (empty, as upstream; needs to be written) to /usr/share. I'm still looking for a real debian-developer to take it over until I get confirmed, which might be quite a bit as I havn't applied yet. -=- James Mastros -- Fruenlaben! -- Crazy director-man, Animanics
