Package: debhelper Version: 4.9.8 Severity: wishlist File /usr/share/doc/reportbug/README.developers lists several uses how reportbug can be configured. One of the things is:
BTS selection ============= Packages not distributed by Debian can take advantage of this utility too. They just need to add a "send-to" header to the control file /usr/share/bug/$package/control. Send-To: bugs.myproject.com It seems few files already use customised reportbug features: # find /usr/share/bug/ -name control /usr/share/bug/xpdf/control /usr/share/bug/libmagic1/control /usr/share/bug/acroread/control /usr/share/bug/tetex-base/control Where e.g. # cat /usr/share/bug/xpdf/control Submit-As: xpdf-reader SUGGESTION: Add new dh_reportbug helper that would do following destdir=debian/PACKAGE/usr/share/bug/PACKAGE if [ -f debian/reportbug.control ]; then install -d $destdir install -m NNNN debian/reportbug.control $destdir/control fi That is: which would handle details of installing customised reportbug file from debian/reportbug.control If one existed. Alternatively perhaps this could be included in dh_installdocs as well? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US) Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii binutils 2.16.1-3 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2 The GNU core utilities ii debconf-utils 1.4.58 debconf utilities ii dpkg-dev 1.13.11 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.12-1 Determines file type using "magic" ii html2text 1.3.2a-2 An advanced HTML to text converter ii perl 5.8.7-4 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 0.9.0 manage translated Debconf template debhelper recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
