Package: libapache-mod-ssl-doc
Version: 2.8.22-1sarge1
To whom it may concern:
First of all, thanks a lot for packaging up this stuff Debian-style.
This is just a minor complaint, but hey - any bug reports that leads to
a fixed bug is a good thing, right?
Between the packages "libapache-mod-ssl" and "libapache-mod-ssl-doc",
there are several redundant files which, IMHO, only serve to (a) waste
disk space, and (b) confuse whoever is trying to read this stuff.
The files [NEWS.gz README.gz changelog.Debian.gz changelog.gz
copyright] are exactly the same, byte for byte. The files that are
both named CREDITS.gz are not byte-for-byte the same, but once
decompressed,
they _are_ byte-for-byte the same (different versions of "gzip"?).
Since, if I understand correctly, the whole point of having a "-doc"
package is to make the installation of big documentation
files/directories optional, I recommend the following:
- remove "changelog.gz" from libapache-mod-ssl (it's 60K)
- remove [NEWS.gz README.gz changelog.Debian.gz copyright] from
libapache-mod-ssl (only 16K together)
- move [README.GlobalID.gz README.Support README.Versions.gz
README.Wishes.gz] to libapache-mod-ssl (they're 20K together)
- have libapache-mod-ssl-doc install its files and directories
(as per my rec., only "changelog.gz" and "html/") into
"/usr/share/doc/libapache-mod-ssl/", and eliminate the redundant and
confusing "/usr/share/doc/libapache-mod-ssl-doc/".
Although the above probably applies to all of mod_ssl's
Debian-supported arches, here are the deb's I installed from:
libapache-mod-ssl-doc_2.8.22-1sarge1_all.deb
libapache-mod-ssl_2.8.22-1sarge1_i386.deb
Regards,
Abe
