Replying to [comment:7 fbissey]:
> We need to bump the patch level if we want this to be upgraded from the
old way.
That's the easy part.
> As for SPKG.txt the new way is to slim them down because most of the
interesting stuff is in the commit message[…]. Look at eclib and flint for
current example.
Looking at them, and at [http://sagemath.org/doc/developer/packaging.html
#the-spkg-txt-file the Developer's Guide], it seems as if the best way
would be removing the Changelog.
I'm less sure about the information about “How to make a new version of
the Maxima spkg”. I haven't tried it, don't know whether it's correct any
more. If it is, should it be moved to the “Special !Update/Build
Instructions” section instead?
The part about `spkg-dist` seems to refer to what `spkg-src` does now.
Perhaps that should go into a comment inside that script instead? Although
this one sentence in the “Special !Update/Build Instructions” already sums
it up: “It removes a large amount of unused documentation and disables the
associated Makefiles, reducing the size of the SPKG greatly.”
> also a few lines about this wouldn't go amiss.
I'm unsure about what exactly you are referring to here. A few lines about
the current `SPKG.txt` conventions, like those in the dev guide? Or a few
lines about my modifications, despite the fact that this is against the
trend of slimming the files down?
