Description:
debian-policy - Debian Policy Manual and related documents
Changes:
debian-policy (2.4.1.0) frozen unstable; urgency=low
.
* Changes to the Debian Policy Manual:
.
- Updated section 3.1.2 Site-specific programs
and section 3.8 Keyboard configuration:
+ improved wording (fixes:bug#20129)
.
- Updated section 2.1.7 Subsections:
+ fixed typos (fixes:bug#18145)
.
- Updated section 3.3.5 Symbolic links:
+ symbolic links within a toplevel directory should be relative,
symbolic links between toplevel directories should be absolute
(cf., Policy Weekly Issue#6, topic 2)
.
- Updated section 3.4 System run levels:
+ Intro: mention /etc/rcS.d (links to boot time scripts)
+ Notes: include rationale why /etc/init.d scripts have to be tagged
as conffiles (fixes:bug#16199)
+ Example: changed example init.d script to handle force-reload
and restart options and to comply with the console message
standard (fixes:bug#19216)
.
- Updated section 4.8 Emacs lisp programs:
+ Replaced old section about lisp programs with a reference to
the file debian-emacs-policy.gz, installed by the emacsen-common
package.
.
- Updated section 4.9 Games:
+ manpages for games should be installed in /usr/man/man6
(cf., Policy Weekly Issue#6, topic 3)
.
- Removed one example reference to the current standards version
- Include manual's date as plain text in the .sgml source so that
a recompiled manual uses the same release date
.
* Changes to the authoritative list of virtual package names:
- Removed obsolete virtual package `emacs'
.
* New version numbering scheme:
.
- The version numbers are independent of dpkg now, but all policy
manuals (the Debian Policy Manual, the Debian Packaging Manual, and
the Debian Developer's Reference) share the same version numbering
scheme.
.
- The first three digits of the version number specify the
`Standards-Version.' This number is incremented with each policy
change. The fourth digit represents the `patch-level,' which may
differ between the manuals.
.
If only the patch-level digit is incremented, no changes in policy
have been made, except bug fixes and clarifications. Packages only
have to specify the first three digits of the version number in the
`Standards-Version' field of their source packages.
.
* Packaging changes:
.
- Uploaded to frozen and unstable. This is a documentation-only
package and the changes to the manual are relevant for hamm.
.
- Fixed FSF's address in copyright file (detected by Lintian)
