https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Documentation Proposed addition to the guidelines: Independent documentation -doc packages typically don't require the base package. It should be possible to install documentation without having to install a program and all its dependencies. Rationale: Recently, in package review requests, I've seen packagers apply https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package also to -doc packages. And there are packages in the collection, which do that, too. This is a hindrance, especially if one only wants to peruse the documentation or install API documentation for remote developing. Of course, an exception to this is documentation in a special format, which can only be viewed within an application. Thoughts?
For rubygem- packages, we are used to put a lot of stuff not needed for runtime into -doc subpackage. That would mean to pay more attention to directory ownership. Not sure if the proposal would make the situation better.
