retitle 648283 libqwt5-doc: rename or remove deprecated.3 severity 648283 important quit
Despite pstreams fixing the other half of this bug, *any* package which uses Doxygen for documentation could end up with a deprecated page which is entirely reasonable as a package-specific HTML component of the documentation. There is no justification for explicitly packaging deprecated.3 as a general purpose manpage when it *only* applies to any single package. Either remove this line: doc/man/man3/deprecated.3 from: debian/libqwt5-doc.manpages or find a way to rename deprecated.3 to libqwt5-deprecated.3 - anything which is package-specific. Is the list of deprecated functions in this package *really* suitable as a manpage at all? I'm temporarily lowering the severity of this bug but as soon as any other package using Doxygen uses the same functionality, this bug will have to be raised to RC again. *Please* fix this before that becomes necessary. Just because pstreams has helped out this time, doesn't mean that qwt5 can ignore the risk of the same thing happening again. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
