If no section/priority in control file, then where?
OK, last Thursday I was told that use of section and priority in the
control files of packages was deprecated by those whose opinions would
seem to matter most---Ian Jackson, dpkg maintainer, and Guy Maor,
archive maintainer.
This is fine with me---one less detail to track for each package.
What about dchanges, though? Is it going to wreak havoc in the
archive if tons of .changes files show up with misc/extra, even when
that's not actually where those packages belong?
I hope not, because that's exactly what it does given the above
set of recommendations.
Mike.
