You are right it was. In a somewhat misguided attempt to do version control I did this. I have reverted back to using the original tar-ball (excluding the copyrighted articles). >- The description looks funny.

(But is the URL missing a "/"?) The second paragraph is gone. And a '/' is added. >- Documentation probably belongs in /usr/share/doc/$package, not > /usr/lib/pythonX.Y. How do I get it there? Or rather, the documentation is installed in a hierarchy, and there are references (e.g. doc/GETTING_HELP refers to gnosis/xml/pickle/doc/HISTORY), how can I preserve the hierarchy, but install it in /usr/share/doc/$package instead? >- Don't know, do you follow the python policy (in package python)? I have taken a look, and made some changes. I am not sure I am 100% compliant. This made me change the name of the package to python-gnosis rather than gnosis-utils.
