mscore for Debian
*****************
Currently, this package does not build the documentation as there is a
bug in the build process for that task. This should be fixed in future
versions.
Does anybody know of any free SoundFonts that can be used to enable
out-of-box synthesis? (Yays and brownie points for ease-of-use!)
This package also installs a .desktop file, and the icon
mscore/mscore/data/mscore.png.
usr/share/mscore is versioned (ie usr/share/mscore-0.7), as upstream
said he wants to make it possible for other users, not necessarily
ours, to install more than one version concurrently for testing. Some
files there are version specific, so he versions /usr/share/mscore.
debian/rules does not employ dh_install to install the update-notifier
file, as it is not known at build time what version of
usr/share/mscore is being used. The installation of this file waits
for the directory to be created in mscore-common (by dh_install), and
a symlink to reference it. The update-notifier file is installed to that
symlinked directory, but a means other than dh_install must be used,
as dh_install has already been called, and it does not support
multiple calls. This means that on upgrading the packaging for a
new release does not necessarily involve changing version numbers in
debian/rules.
