Hi list! I'm nearly finished with my /magnum opus/, latex-cjk (a LaTeX macro that allows you to insert Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese text in a LaTeX document), which you can find at
deb http://chinese.alioth.debian.org latex-cjk/ deb-src http://chinese.alioth.debian.org latex-cjk/ I only need to (re)package some bitmap fonts (which is not necessary to run the packages since I also provide better-quality Type1 fonts, but is nice to have, esp. for CNS). These fonts can be found at ftp://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/fonts/CJK/. The thing is that Anthony Fok has already packaged a few of these fonts (hbf-cns40-[1-7], hbf-cns40-b5, hbf-jfs56 and hbf-kanji48), each with their own changelog (having only two or three entries each though) and with their own Debian source package. I find it too bothersome and clumsy to have a source package for each and every font, so I would like to use only 1. Debian lacks the Korean (han*.tar.gz), another Japanese (jisksp40.tar.gz) and a Chinese font (ntukai48.tar.gz) anyway. My questions: - What to do about the old changelogs if I want to use a single Debian source for all packages? - Do I just put dummy entries in the changelog up to version 1.0.4? - Do I put the content of the old changelogs altogether in one changelog entry? - What about the name of the Debian source packages ("hbf-cns40-1", "hbf-jfs56", etc. in comparison with the new source package "hbf-fonts")? - Should I put the old packages on the "Replace:" line? Or even set "Conflicts: hbf-foo1 (<=1.0.3), hbf-foo2 (<=1.0.2), etc."? FWIW: The new Debian source package "hbf-fonts" will be a repackaged tarball containing all the .tar.gz files from above FTP site. debian/rules will automatically remove prior build directories and extract all these packages. Thank you for your advice.
