Still it needs to ship a changelog.gz. Which it doesn't. Even if it linked to the "real" packages changelog(.Debian(.gz the name should be correct (it ships "changelog") so that the valid(!) assumption of zless /usr/share/doc/<package>/changelog.gz[1] works :) Regards, Rene [1] I think we can assume a transitional package is Debian-only, so a changelog.gz should be ok here, though a changelog.Debian.gz would of course be better :-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
