What is supposed to be the difference between the directories
of bash-release/doc and the separate tar,
bash-release-doc ?
It seems like -- looking through my local dist, it basically uses
the former for the notes and documentation and don't bother with
the separate "-doc" tar.
It sorta looks like the -doc-tar was descended from the bash/doc directory.
But, for example, the patch files make changes to the bash/doc
directory, but don't update the separate bash-doc.tar.
Isn't this split setup "ripe" for getting the directories out of
sync? It would seem like the contents of bash-doc might be easier
to "mange" if they were "sync'ed" and merged into bash/doc -- then
only distribute 1 tar?
Not a biggie, but I note with other tools, my distro packagers put
the info from <tool>/doc into /usr/share/packages/<tool> to include
on a system (whether or not that's a good idea is another discussion
:-)), but in having 2 separate tars, they are only picking up whatever
docs happen to reside in the source dir "bash-<rel>/doc"...
