• Bug#265956: gwc: unnecessary dependency on yelp

    From Paul Seelig@1:229/2 to All on Mon Aug 16 00:20:10 2004

    Package: gwc
    Version: 0.20.02-4
    Severity: normal

    I don't see why users should be forced to install yet another package just
    to display a simple html file when in most cases any www-browser is
    already available. Using an already installed web browser for help display should be resonably sufficient and prevents wasting disk space.

    The only reason i have yelp installed is because gwc has a hard dependency
    on it. It would be nice if you could please remove the dependency on yelp
    and enable gwc instead to display it's simple html help pages using any installed www-browser via /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser.

    It would be great if you could put a symlink into /usr/share/doc/gwc/
    pointing at /usr/share/gnome/help/gnome_wave_cleaner/C/ so that this documentation could be made available via dwww as well.

    And BTW: Thanks for maintaining gwc for Debian! :-)

    Thanks, P. *8^)
