Package: yada
Version: 0.34
Severity: important
Hi,
I've just done QA upload of xfonts-biznet-iso-8859-2 package,
which I wanted to upgrade to the newest Debian standards, but
with yada the task is rather impossible :(
According to Debian Policy, section 11.8.5:
17. Font packages that provide one or more fonts.alias files as
described above must invoke update-fonts-alias on each directory into
which they installed fonts. This invocation must occur in both the
postinst (for all arguments) and postrm (for all arguments except
upgrade) scripts.
18. Font packages must invoke update-fonts-dir on each directory
into which they installed fonts. This invocation must occur in both
the postinst (for all arguments) and postrm (for all arguments
except upgrade) scripts.
However, yada generates only the postrm script, which calls
/usr/bin/X11/mkfontdir and /usr/sbin/update-fonts-alias
Moreover the called programs give the following warning when
yada-built package is upgraded:
warning: absolute path /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi was provided
Best Regards,
robert
