Bug#411099: Please do not tar demos and examples
Package: qt4-doc
Version: 4.2.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Currently the demos and examples are tarred up and put into
/usr/share/doc/qt4-doc/qt4-(examples|demos).tar.gz
This unfortunately breaks qtdemo, where the examples are not shown, and
the demos can't be run.
It also makes it quite cumbersome, to test, run and inspect the
demos/examples, because each time you have to unpack the files.
The space savings are not really that big and qt4-doc is already pretty
large, so it won't matter anyways.
So, please ship the demos/examples untarred as they were build during
installation.
Please also note, that currently the tarballs contain a lot of
.moc/.obj/.rcc build directories, ship should not be distributed.
Cheers,
Michael
