Yeah, I seriously think package documentation belongs to tarballs and |
| 13 |
gets installed to /usr/share/docs/${PF} - not to gentoo-x86 repository |
| 14 |
where you are forcing every single user to download such stuff via rsync |
| 15 |
and have it sitting on their disk even if they don't use the package at |
| 16 |
all. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
And if you need a pointer to new features, a simple 'elog "Read the |
| 19 |
NEWS/Changelog in /usr/share/doc/${PF}" or a link to a website is |
| 20 |
definitely more appropriate that abusing critical news for howtos and |
| 21 |
new features announcement. |
