Hi,
now that grass 6.4rc3 has been thrown at debain's autobuilders a Lintian
hygiene report is available:
http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org.html#grass
http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/grass.html
of interest are:
* the nviz2.2's tcl scripts being installed as executable;
* etc/[dm|gm]/tksys.tcl and etc/gm/animate.tcl not quite sure if they
are executable shell scripts or Tcl or some hybrid beast;
* gui/wxpython/scripts/Makefile gets installed by mistake
and a whole bunch of man page build warnings/errors.
There is a complaint about gui/scripts/*.py shebanging python instead
of python2.5 (matching the python pkg that the grass pkg depends on)
That is for DebianGIS to patch as needed, but I guess we should be
respecting what the user gave for $GRASS_PYTHON.
I also notice that the main GRASS man page has lost the LOCATION/MAPSET
text from the synopsis for some reason:
NAME
grass65 - The GRASS startup program
SYNOPSIS
grass65 [-] [-v] [-h | -help | --help] [-text | -gui | -tcltk |
-wxpython]] [[[/]/] ]
