Second opinion needed on location of static arch independent data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

During the review of mkdocs[1], which is a python package for
generating static webpages, I (as reviewer) noticed that it installs a
lot of themes (javascript, fonts and the like) under
/usr/lib/python3/site-packages/mkdocs/themes.

My feeling is that this static architecture independent data should
really be installed under /usr/share/mkdocs to comply with the FHS[2].
But the packager (quite reasonably) points out that other packages
such as sphinx install templates and themes under
/usr/lib/python3/site-packages.

So, the question is: is it acceptable for this package to install arch
independent themes (i.e. non-python code) under
/usr/lib/python3/site-packages ?

TIA,
Jonathan
