Package Name: manuals Version: 49~alpha Upstream Author: Christian Hergert License: GPL-3+ Programming Lang: C Description: GNOME developers help program Manuals is an app for GNOME to install, browse, and search developer documentation. . Only the devhelp2 format is currently supported. Links -------- This package will be maintained by the Debian GNOME Team at https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/manuals The upstream project is at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/manuals Other Info -------------- Starting with GNOME 49, Manuals is an official part of GNOME, not in GNOME Core, but in the Developer Tools set. You can install all these tools by installing `gnome-devel` on Debian. The official upstream list is at https://apps.gnome.org/#development Because GNOME 49 won't be released until a week from now, that list shows Devhelp instead of Manuals. Manuals is the replacement for the Devhelp app. I expect we will likely remove Devhelp from Debian during the Forky development cycle since Devhelp will probably be archived in GNOME after GNOME 49 is released. Naming Considerations ------------------------------- This is yet another very generically named GNOME project. I think this precise name is unique among apps so I'm packaging this using the upstream name instead of a Debian-specific rename to gnome-manuals. Thanks, Jeremy Bícha
