Bug#821119: [debian-refcard] change build mechanism to improve layout for cs, el and sk
Package: debian-refcard Tags: patch thanks I saw that the pdfs for some languages suffer from some problems, for example the copyright notice does not display all lines being set up in the po file. While playing around with this, I found that there is probably room for improvement for the languages Czech, Greek and Slovak. When building the pdfs with make USE_DBLATEX=2 refcard-XX-a4.pdf (this means using dblatex instead of xmlroff) I get a pdf with a correct copyright notice, coloured URLs and better usage of the available space on the sheet (somewhat smaller fonts, and no unused space as it was before for Greek). And Greek gets some free space on the sheet, that was very critical before, as the Greek language needs much space apparently. There was absolutely no free space on the sheet before for Greek, the whole space was needed. A patch is attached, which changes the Makefile to build the above languages accordingly. What is needed next is a proofread of the resulting pdfs by mother-tongue speakers for that languages, to ensure the displaying of fonts is still ok, and the like. I will try to get some proofreading on the respective l10n lists. Best regards Holger -- Created with Sylpheed 3.5.0 under D E B I A N L I N U X 8 . 0 " J E S S I E " .

debian-faq: Patch4 to change apt-get / apt-cache into apt
Hello, now the fourth patch, which documents the new apt command, as an alternative for apt-get / apt-cache. My approach is, to list both variants in examples, means the old apt-get command, and the new apt command. I added a sentence which gives a declaration about the new apt binary. Additionally, I made apt/apt-get the recommended package tool over aptitude. (Before it was the other way around.) Comments welcome.

I'd add a sentence like: "The apt tool merges functionality of apt-get and apt-cache; and by default has a fancier colored output format, making it more pleasant for humans. For usage in scripts, apt-get is still preferable."
