Interesting, I must have glossed over that as I was on VAC at the time. I note that the ftpmasters currently reject packages that are missing source for non-programmatic works (REJECT-FAQ explicitly mentions PS/PDF documentation). So the current archive requirements are in practice stricter than the DFSG and the attempted DFSG clarification GR. https://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
