old package dir anomalies
To the best of my knowledge in the old directory structure (non package
pool) packages used to go in the section that was described in the
packages control file.
The following packages dont follow that trend.
package archive section package section
netcdf-doc_3-3 math science
clue_19970309-7 interpreters libs
mesag3-glide2_3.1-17 graphics libs
libgd-gif1-dev_1.3-2 libs devel
ivtools-interviews_0.7.9-6 devel libs
elkdoc_3.0-6 devel doc
librplay3-dev_3.3.2-4 sound devel
iraf_2.11.3-2 misc science
iraf-dev_2.11.3-2 graphics science
tpctl_0.8.1-5 misc utils
iraf-noaobin_2.11.3-2 misc science
powertweak_0.1.16-2 utils admin
libmicrowindows0_0.88pre7-1 libs devel
ivtools-unidraw_0.7.9-6 devel libs
nte_1.5.32-2 x11 net
nestra_0.66-4.deb games otherosfs
libstdc++2.10_2.95.2-14 libs oldlibs
libgeda-dev_19991011-1 electronics devel
I guess there must be a reason, anyone care to share it with me ?
