More info is available at [1]. > > 1. http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/DependencyOnOrphanedPythonXML FYI the issues with DocBook and the Debian wiki have just been resolved, so DocBook support is likely to keep working. The details are in this bug in case you are interested: https://bugs.debian.org/787583 > there are longer term plans afoot to look at switching to ikiwiki. ikiwiki is no longer as popular as it once was, so this is less likely. BTW, if you are shipping the DocBook output anywhere without shipping the raw wiki files, then that may be a violation of DFSG item 2, at minimum the ftp-master REJECT FAQ mentions that even documentation needs to ship the source files. I encourage you to instead either switch to Sphinx or ship the raw wiki text and then render the DocBook and other outputs from that at build time. https://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
