| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: re, installing man pages... It seems we install studio-controls.1 in man1/ but if I look at the installed file it is studio-controls.1.gz | 04:56 |
|---|---|---|
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: so how did it get from one to the other? There is mention of a mandb command, is that what happens? or is there something else? | 04:58 |
| OvenWerks | I guess for that matter, if the text is still the same the .gz doesn't matter. Does the man command do the actual formatting? | 04:59 |
| OvenWerks | I guess it doesn't matter | 05:00 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: I think I have answered my own question | 05:00 |
| OvenWerks | if I just install the raw text the system may at some later time gz it. So I just have to make sure the uninstall command removes studio-controls.* | 05:02 |
| OvenWerks | OK, so mandb does not seem to compress the file does some other debtool do that? | 05:07 |
| RikMills | FYI, Qt 5.15 is probably going to starting landing in proposed later today | 14:06 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: Yeah, debhelper does the compression automatically for any manpages it finds. | 14:17 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | RikMills: Good news! | 14:17 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: in controls, the lib dir has gone... err well moved to usr/lib | 16:10 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: Sounds good, should be an easy packaging change once we get to it. | 16:10 |
| OvenWerks | make install will put everything in /usr/local by default but the usual parameters will put it in /usr... but for deb that is probably not needed because everything is in a tree already | 16:11 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Only thing is that if dh sees a makefile it'll try using it. | 16:12 |
| OvenWerks | a makefile saves me having to deal with command line parameters | 16:13 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Honestly, it shouldn't matter so long as everything ends up where it's supposed to. In the case of dh, it should throw the build into debian/studio-controls, which should get picked-up easily. | 16:15 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | TL;DR: I don't think it'll be a factor | 16:15 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | In fact, it might even eliminate the need for d/studio-controls.install | 16:16 |
| OvenWerks | It does try to create links where needed | 16:17 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Which eliminates the need for d/studio-controls.links (if we even have it). | 16:17 |
