Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I am taking over bug 19493 as I became interested in cadabra |
| 4 |
after a post by its author on the sympy mailing list. |
| 5 |
http://www.aei.mpg.de/~peekas/cadabra/index.html |
| 6 |
After searching bugzilla I found someone had already filled a |
| 7 |
bug for it. I am almost ready to commit working ebuilds for it. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Now for the policy questions: |
| 10 |
The original submitter put 3 ebuilds in the bug, cadabra itself |
| 11 |
and its two dependencies LiE and libmodglue. |
| 12 |
Should I open separate bugs for those? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Second the ebuild for LiE is "mostly" fine however packaging |
| 15 |
was obviously not a main concern of the author. The suggested |
| 16 |
ebuild use the patch from the debian package and the files |
| 17 |
are put under /usr/lib/lie and a script is put under /usr/bin. |
| 18 |
A man page is also included as par debian policy. Now |
| 19 |
is it the right way to do it in Gentoo? Should the script calling |
| 20 |
the program be in /usr/libexec for example? |
| 21 |
|

Cheers, |
