Package: cdebootstrap
Version: 0.3.4
Followup-For: Bug #254248
I was a bit surprised to see a bug like 254248 being tagged as won't
fix.
I had the very same question as the original poster of the bug and I see
that the package maintainer has taken similar actions to patches (see
bug #231711), without justifying the reason of his action.
And, frankly, providing the one-liner description in the field of the
"long description" is something quite unreasonable.
The man page of cdebootstrap is not much better and even though bug
#294487 was fixed, I feel that the documentation of the packgage is in
desperate need of a facelift. The changelog is also quite "sparse", if
you know what I mean.
I would like to read the opinion of other users regarding this topic,
which I think is of utmost importance for any decent operating system
(otherwise, if documentation were not important, why would the project
create all the fuzz to move things into non-free?).
Sincerely yours, Rogério Brito.
