So, there are two differences here. The files are organized in a different
directory structure, and have a different extension. Is there some way
this can be corrected at the packaging end?
I will take a look at that, but note that the
context-doc-nonfree
packages has NOT been updated in a while, so it probably is in a bad
state wrt organization. Next upload will ship pdf uncompressed, and
hopefully fix these issues.
Can you propose/list a better/working layout? The docs should reside
somehow under
/usr/share/doc/<package>
but can be linked into
/usr/share/doc/texmf/
which in turn is linked from
/usr/share/texmf/doc/
so that texdoc finds the stuff.
How about having the same directory structure as in the context standalone
distribution? For that, we will need to make the following changes
cd /usr/share/doc/context-doc-nonfree/
gunzip showcase/*.pdf.gz
gunzip manuals/*.pdf.gz
mv showcase/*.pdf ./
rmdir showcase
mkdir general
mv manuals general
The files in setup/ are ok, since they are not linked by anything else.
Also, can the context magazines
(isoimage/usr/local/context/docroot/documents/general/magazines in the
context standalone distribution) be included in the debian package at
/usr/share/doc/context-doc-nonfree. Their location does not matter, but to
keep the directory structure future proof, I would suggest the same
strucutre as pragma's So they can be copied to general/magazines/
