Package: go2 Version: 0.090827 Severity: minor (This might deserve "l10n" and/or "patch" tags)
go2 has a super-short package description, and its man page says: # This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the # original program does not have a manual page. [...] # This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long # options starting with two dashes (`-ยด). A summary of options is # included below. For a complete description, see the Info files. [...] # This program is fully documented in # http://arco.inf-cr.uclm.es/~david.villa/go2.html But there's no info file in the package (unless you mean /usr/share/pyshared/go2-0.090827.egg-info, which doesn't contain any such description) and the website is in Spanish. If I have /usr/lib/go2/go2.sh loaded in my shell (a requirement mentioned in the README but nowhere else) I can see that the output of "go2 --help" includes several options not listed in the manpage (and some not listed on the website): -l, --gui, --cmd, --dir. As I mentioned in bug #545247, --gui doesn't work. So please: * expand the package description with information from the webpage * update the man page with at least the information that's in the README and the --help output If you need assistance with translations, there's always the debian-l10n-english mailing list, and I include below my own rough version of the package description. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Package: go2 Description: fast directory finder This package provides a mechanism for quickly changing directory on the commandline, in the style of the old Norton Change Directory for DOS, but designed specifically for bash. . Features: * cache of recent searches; * history list of visited directories; * blacklist of directories not to search; * configuration file for default options; * multithreaded execution. . To activate go2, users need to source the appropriate function in their ~/.bashrc - see README.Debian for details. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Leftover sub-wishlist not-quite-bug-reports: Are you sure go2 is bash-specific? It seems to work in pretty much any normal user shell - ksh, zsh... in fact, every shell I tried it in except dash and csh. Since shell functions take priority over executables, have you considered the possibility of creating a /usr/bin/go2 that exists just to tell users that they need to set up the shell function? Just an idea. Why "Suggests: locate" and not "Suggests: locate | mlocate"? -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30.custom Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages go2 depends on: ii python 2.5.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.6.11 register and build utility for Pyt go2 recommends no packages.
