webboard has no manpage

[Siegfried Gevatter]

Binary package hint: webboard

W: webboard: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/webboard
W: webboard: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/webboard-applet

[Josh Holland (jshholland)]

Branch proposed for merging by me fixes this bug

[Siegfried Gevatter (rainct)]

Thanks! I've moved the manpage from debian/ to data/ and added code to setup.py to install it; I've commited this to a new branch: lp:~rainct/webboard/dev

In a successive commit I also remove the debian/ directory altogether, as it is usually not something wanted in the upstream source. But feel free to reject this commit if you want to keep it there.

[Siegfried Gevatter (rainct)]

Ah, forgot to say that a manpage for webboard-applet is still missing (if this is supposed to be an executable).

[Olivier Le Thanh Duong (olethanh)]

Thanks to both of you for theses patches. I merged Siegfied branch since it's the more up to date and I was also willing to remove the debian directory.
I don't think webboard-applet needs a man page. You won't normally execute it since applet can't add themselves to the panel (you are forced to use the panel menu to add them).

Fixed in upstream

[Siegfried Gevatter (rainct)]

Thanks, Olivier!

About webboard-applet, does it really need to be in /usr/bin then?

(Setting the Ubuntu task back to 'Triaged' - 'Fix commited' means that a package fixing this has already been uploaded to Ubuntu).

> About webboard-applet, does it really need to be in /usr/bin then?
Not really it seems. I looked a bit on how other applets do and they place the applet in /usr/lib/<app>. I have modified webboard to do the same.
