Bug#917270: texlive-latex-extra-doc: Please add dtx files for dtxgallery
Package: texlive-latex-extra-doc
Version: 2018.20181214-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Open the dtxgallery document with 'texdoc dtxgallery'.
A PDF file opens, and on the very first page prominently lists four example dtx files
without any information how to open them:
single-source.dtx
conditional-code.dtx
rearrange.dtx
dtxgallery.dtx
Note that on the top of the second page, the document explicitly recommends
examining these dtx files directly, but the lack of any information where these are make it
very hard. They don't seem to be included in the package, at least not in an obvious location:
$ dpkg -L texlive-latex-extra-doc | grep dtxgallery
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery/README
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery/conditional-code.pdf
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery/dtxgallery.pdf
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery/rearrange.pdf
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/dtxgallery/single-source.pdf
To make dtxgallery useful please put the dtx files in the same directory as dtxgallery.pdf,
and make the names of the dtx files in dtxgallery.pdf a hyperlink to these files,
so that they can be easily opened by clicking on their names.
Best wishes,
Gábor
