Hi I'm attempting to become DD, so I'm currently packaging some software. One of this software must be packaged in two parts: one for the client part (tty/console), one for the X frontend, so the X frontend package depends on the client package. My problem is that the README and changelog files are the same for both, so instead of install 2 times the same files. I attempt to make symlinks from README and changelog from the X frontend package to those from the client package, which seems correct since the X frontend package depends on the client package, so they will never be dead links. But lintian tells me that the README and changelog files from the X frontend package are zero-sized, which is quite normal since the links are broken while they are not installed. So should I install the same version for the two packages, or rely on symlinks, ignoring lintians's errors ? -- .,p**"*=b_ Nicolas Rueff ?P" .__ `*b Montbéliard - France |P .d?'`&, 9| http://rueff.tuxfamily.org M: |} |- H' n.rueff@tuxfamily.org &| `#?_._oH' +33 6 77 64 44 80 `H.
