No. I mean FlightCrew/Schemas/AsSources/Ncx20051Dtd.cpp and the schema
from which that was built.
 
 I didn't find any other file.

They're not the original author; I contacted the NCX2005 maintainers,
and while I got one response, they didn't respond with anything else useful.

Bug#590180: possible packaging of sigil prepared

2014-03-15 Thread Norbert Preining 
Hi Don, hi all,

since it seems nothing is going on here, I have packaged sigil 0.7.4
and it is built with the builtin flightcrew, as long as that one is
not packaged.

I know that Sigil has been more or less stopped development in favor
of Calibre's editor. But as much as I like calibre for managing my
ebooks, I am not totally happy with the editor for now. Of course,
Sigil also has its limitations, my biggest complain is support for
epub3 and vertical typesetting (Japanese). But this holds the same way
for Calibre.

Thus, here is a package for sigil in Debian/sid:
Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/users/preining/sigil.git
Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=users/preining/sigil.git;a=summary
and ready compiled binaries for amd64 plus source packages are at
deb http://people.debian.org/~preining/ sigil/
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~preining/ sigil/

Packages are lintian clean, clean chroot build tested, and install/run tested.

Comments are welcome!

Thanks

Norbert

The problem is that flightcrew contains non-DFSG-free source files which
cannot be distributed in main. I have partially re-implemented them from
scratch, but I haven't had a chance to finish them up.

Once I finish doing that (or someone else does), flightcrew can be
uploaded to Debian, and sigil can be packaged and uploaded without the
embedded code copies.
