Summary: | 0004379: Bash dependancy | ||||
Description: |
I saw in bug 0003613 that you depend on CSWbash as one texinfo script requires bash. However there is an info file in bash: - if texinfo is not installed, I have "CSWtexinfo not found" message. Installation works but it's not really nice. - if I depend on texinfo, it a cyclic dependancy as texinfo depend on bash. I see several solution to this probleme: - make texinfo scripts use SUN bash instead of OpenCSW one and suppress the dependancy. - change the "CSWtexinfo not found" message to something nicer, for example, a message that explain the impact of texinfo not being found (I don't know it myself) and how to install it; - do not display a message at all. If someone want info files, it needs to install texinfo. solution 2 & 3 would require to have the texinfo postinstall launch install-info for every info file installed prior the package installation. It's maybe already done, I have not checked. What's your opinion on this ? |
