The guideline > (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Duplicate_Files) may not > be clear enough on that part. I'd place at least the LICENSE.txt in the main package, since it applies to the main package too. The development documentation, however, should go with -devel (unless it is so big that it should be branched into a separate -doc package). As the -devel package requires the main package, the documentation of the main package is also available whenever -devel is installed, and thus there is no need to duplicate the file(s). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
