Bug#466120: sometimes one wonders why one bothers



tag 466120 -pending
thanks

(10:53:55) periapt: What's the word for getting 90% of the way through
and easy package and then realizing it raises horrible questions?
(10:57:12) ansgar: bash-doc-reference?
(10:57:46) periapt: ansgar: yes
(10:58:10) periapt: ansgar: I've also picked a terrible time to ask the
ftp-masters something
(10:59:03) periapt: I was reckoning I would have to poke them with it as
a Christmas present.
(11:01:25) ansgar: periapt: There was a question to ftpmaster in there?
(11:02:18) periapt: ansgar: Well at least copyright and duplication. Or
should I just go and upload.
(11:02:47) periapt: Or who does one turn to when one is about to upload
a new package and having doubts.
(11:03:24) periapt: Does it ring any alarm bells for you?
(11:03:32) ansgar: periapt: GFDL with no invariant anything is free.
(11:03:50) periapt: ansgar: so wrong section.
(11:05:24) ansgar: Well, the header for index.html mentions
{Front,Back}-Cover Texts...
(11:06:16) ansgar: Also <meta name="generator" content="makeinfo 4.13">
(11:06:31) ansgar: I don't think that is the source ;)
(11:09:04) periapt: http://www.debian.org/vote/2006/vote_001 seems
pretty clear. Non-free
(11:09:55) ansgar: periapt: Take a look which option won ;)
(11:12:10) periapt: So the Wikipedia page is pretty innacurate then.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian_Free_Software_Guidelines
(11:13:35) ansgar: Well, it mentions invariant sections, but is not very
clear about it.
(11:14:34) periapt: And I suppose I had better have a look at the
texinfo source. If the HTML is generated from that then I would really
have to start again.
