Re: QUESTION: Debian Policy: Manual pages



Hi

Firstly, this kind of question would be better suited in the
debian-mentors list.

Are they really distributed in three separate upstream tarballs? If they
are, perhaps it would be better to generate a single tarball, if not,
there's no need to split it. A single tarball can - and most do -
generate many separate debs. Take a look at the New Maintainer Guide[0]
or get the sources of some existing packages to get the hang of it.

This should solve the manpage issue.
