Hi people, I have a clone git repository here which consists of several TEI encoded XML files for Sanskrit philology (https://github.com/paddymcall/SARIT):
$ ls SARIT/ astangahrdayasamhita.xml brahmapurana.xml debian manusmrti.xml ratnakIrti-nibandhAvali.xml schemas ayurvedasutram.xml caryamelapakapradipa.xml kautalyarthasastra.xml naradasmrti.xml README.org I'm building a Debian packet from them with simple "dh $@" in debian/rules (Debhelper 7) and with a debian/install which goes like this: $ cat debian/install *xml usr/share/sarit schemas usr/share/sarit/schemas README.org usr/share/doc/sarit/ Questions: 1) the Git repo maintainer doesn't uses tags yet, so I've chosen the snapshot for my packet rev number (420aa04-1). For I am building from within Git (debian/ has been blacklisted through .git/info/exclude), is it possible to create the .deb also without a source tarball or what would be best practice to recreate it? 2) I would like to create PDFs from the .xml-s during packet creation, I would guess I would need a override_dh_ for this in debian/rules, which? 3) Would Debian be interested to include such a "data" packet into the official repos if the copyright issue has been solved? Thanks for any tips towards this easy stuff, Greetings, DS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
