Built! (Finally!) And the Future...

Okay, I've finally got those packages built and uploaded.

There have been a lot of changes to tetex-base, most of which you
probably won't have seen as they're taking place on a branch off
the main trunk.  To get the sources I built from, you'll have to
run the following command to switch your working copy over to the
branch:

   cvs update -r license_cleanup

You might also be able to do

   cvs update -r debian_version_1_0_2+20011202-3

You might want to run 

   cvs update -A

afterwards to remove the sticky tags, but you probably won't need
to do so.

I built the packages using the existing rules file (with two small
changes -- I removed a couple of lines that did cleanup that was
already covered by dh_clean, and I added a line to run a script to
remove the files we're no longer distributing).

That said, I spent most of yesterday completely rewriting the
rules file, but haven't committed my changes yet.  It's mostly
cleanup, but I also commented the file thoroughly so it should be
easier to understand what's happening.

The major change is that I'm generating both a
debian/tetex-doc.files and a debian/tetex-extra.files file (the
old version only did debian/tetex-doc.files), and using
dh_movefiles to do the moving of files instead of some of the code
that existed.

There have been two results that need a bit of attention.  The
first is that I'm currently including a bunch of (I assume) empty
directories in the tetex-base package that should be in
tetex-extra.  Cleaning those up is probably pretty easy.

The second is that the contents of the debs are slightly
different.  I'm generating the pattern for the doc files
on-the-fly, which means that it picks up some directories that
ended up in tetex-base before.  I've also deliberately excluded
the pdftex and pdfetex directories from the files that go in
tetex-extra, which means they end up in tetex-base, which is
presumably at least one step closer to people being able to use
pdflatex without installing tetex-extra.


I want to sort the directory issue, and then I'll commit the rules
file so other people can have a look at it.  I'll also provide
some diffs between the file lists for debs built using the old and
new rules.
