The next version of R [1] ships with the previously included Gnome front-end.
So the r-gnome binary package becomes an empty shell, and I would like to
signal that via a NEWS file (as opposed to a debconf message). However, in
my tests, the NEWS file never got displayed by apt-listchanges.
I plan to upload the next r-gnome as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> dpkg -L r-gnome
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/r-gnome
/usr/share/doc/r-gnome/copyright
/usr/share/doc/r-gnome/NEWS.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/r-gnome/changelog.Debian.gz
(and upstream changelogs are of course in r-base-core on which this still
Depends).
Is there anything else I need to do to get NEWS.Debian displayed at
installation? apt-listchanges is conf'ed for 'both' on my box.
Please CC me on replies.
Thanks, Dirk
