Bug#311188: Some thoughts on #debian-edu which seemed valuable...



Jun 05 10:22:32 <luk>   I do think that 311188 gets too little attention
as I'm sure other projects would be (are) interested in how to solve it,
maybe I (or someone else) should start a discussion on debian-devel
about it?
Jun 05 10:23:34 <h01ger>        luk, sounds reasonable. we'll discuss it
in extremadura as well. (sorry, no video streaming :)
Jun 05 10:24:46 <luk>   when is that meeting, next weekend?
Jun 05 10:24:58 <xorAxAx>       luk: begins on wednesday
Jun 05 10:27:50 <luk>   ok, note that some ideas about fixing the
wishlist bugs are introducing debconf questions or configuration
changing programs, creating the file in the maintainerscripts (so it's
no conffile anymore) or introducing a way to include extra configuration
(like udev did)
Jun 05 10:29:15 *       h01ger nods
Jun 05 10:29:18 <luk>   note also that introducing hyperlinks and just
plain changing configuration files of other packages might also be
problems though IMHO not as severe as touching conffiles
Jun 05 10:29:44 <luk>   though some people might disagree with me on the
last thing :-(
Jun 05 10:30:55 <luk>   another solution might be to only ship the
(empty) configuration file in usr/share/doc/<package>/examples so it's
no conffile...
Jun 05 10:32:05 <luk>   this sounds rather absurd, though there are some
of these between the bugs I filed (conffiles with only comments)

Cheers

Luk
