Version: 2.30.2-1 Installed-Size: 60792 Size: 28767500 so it's better than before. Now, maybe help files could be splitted to an evolution-help package but: - that won't happen before squeeze; - I'm not sure adding yet another binary package is nice; - people who need help will have problems installing external help package so if I split, I'll add a Recommends: from evolution, and I'm still not persuaded it's a good idea. Stay tuned, anyway (but don't hold your breathe). Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
