Dear all masters of the trade, I am in a position with "gnurush" that the upstream author has not responded within a reasonable time as to what his future intentions are regarding texinfo source, which mandates front-cover and back-cover to be included. Therefore I will proceed to repackage the upstream source, in order that I may finally resolve an RFP, for which my packaging was already rejected by the FTP Master. On fair grounds, I must add.
Removing the texinfo source from the source archive will be standard enough, as will the tweaking of the build system probably be. However, my intention is to isolate the rebellic Texinfo part into a separate package "gnurush-doc", that would have to go into "non-free". Already from the beginning did I compose manual pages for the offered binaries, so this separation will not violate any policy on that account. Keeping the full upstream source in order to build a fairly minute documentation package seems rather waistful. Is there some alternate common practice available? That would suggest a small tailored repackaging in order to target this "gnurush-doc", only containing the Texinfo document and the supplementary files for Debian?
