doc-base control file madness
I've recently looked into the doc-base control file format. It seems
pretty sane, except I realized since it does not provide for any
macro expansion, I will have to edit the 8 or 9 doc control files
libgtk1.1.13-doc (and 1.1.14, and 1.1.15, ad nauseum) provides
EVERY SINGLE TIME there is a new release.
Yuck.
Is there any way doc-base can provide some kind of macro expansion,
so I don't have to edit:
/usr/doc/libgtk1.1.13-doc/gtk-faq.html/
...
every time I have a new package, instead, doing something like
VERSION=1.1.13
/usr/doc/libgtk${VERSION}-doc/gtk-faq.html/
...
? This would be much nicer.
