Package: nm.debian.org
Hi,
Question PH5 in nm_pp1.txt leads to confusion with my NM's every time. This is
the question as it is in the templates:
PH5. What are the sections of Debian software and the differences between
them? How would you decide where to put a new package? Which requirements
do the packages in the sections have to meet?
Current sections are admin, base, comm, contrib, devel, doc, editors,
electronics, embedded, games, gnome, graphics, hamradio, interpreters, kde,
libs, libdevel, mail, math, misc, net, news, non-free, oldlibs, otherosfs,
perl, python, science, shells, sound, tex, text, utils, web, x11.
But I'm unclear on the answers to the second and third subquestion on PH5,
especially on the requirements for sections.
It would make more sense to me if s/sections/categories/, and hence the
question would be about the difference between main, contrib and non-free.
Wouldn't that be a better question?
Thijs
