There are many other ways documentation can be improved, so source and an automatic build process is just as important for documentation as it is for binaries. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise

According to the PDF metadata, the source is minini.dvi and the PDF was built using a very old version of dvips (from texlive-binaries), please ask upstream if they still have a copy of that and get them to include it in the source for the next release. $ pdfinfo minIni.pdf | head -n3 Title: minini.dvi Creator:dvips(k) 5.96dev Copyright 2007 Radical Eye Software Producer: AFPL Ghostscript 8.53 > This makes it impossible for anyone to edit it. Technically there are ways to edit PDFs (pdfmod for eg) but since they are almost never produced this way, they are almost never their own source. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise

Anyway I remove it since I just want to provide a shared library (for utox).

Thanks, the packaging seems to work well now. Alas, this can't be said about copyright stuff. I see that "NOTICE" includes Steven Van Ingelgem and Luca Bassanello as contributors, and at least the former is above the threshold of copyrightability (a rule of thumb says ~10 lines are a reasonable boundary between a trivial vs non-trivial contribution). The documentation bears a copyright marking of CompuPhase -- I get the impression that CompuPhase is the author's company (no idea if employer or owned), but legally that's distinct. (Yeah, all this legal crap is annoying, and a waste of time that could be spent coding -- but we don't get to choose the law. :( ) I also don't see any source for the PDF documentation. This makes it impossible for anyone to edit it. Meow! -- // If you believe in so-called "intellectual property", please immediately // cease using counterfeit alphabets.

The project license has an exception, which you have put into the Comment: field in d/copyright, putting just "Apache-2" into the License field. This is incorrect, as the project license is not "Apache-2". The Comment: is not meant to contains parts of the license. You should also look at the "GPL-2+ with OpenSSL exception" example in the section 7.2 of the spec. -- WBR, wRAR signature.asc Description: PGP signature
