No opinion on that (don't know enough about it), but if you do, you can accomplish the "or" by adding a dependency on /usr/bin/audacity. > Thirdly, vague recollection of one source/package.

I'd lean towards making it a completely separate subpackage then. But whichever way you choose, the manual should be kept in sync with the "main" package so that it documents whatever is in the main package, not earlier nor newer version of the software. If the intent is to make the manual installable without installing audacity itself, I'd also consider installing the manual to let's say /usr/share/doc/audacity-manual and patching the main packages to use it from there, I think that's a location where people are more likely to find it than /usr/share/audacity/help. > 4. Being new to git/fedpkg, how can I tell which branch I'm on ? "git branch".
