This file is used to keep track of packaging choices, known issues and TO-DOs.

* The code won't compile with gcc option "-pedantic"
  because ISO-C++ forbids the type "unsigned long long". But upstream
  does need this type which BTW seems to be widely supported.

* dpkg-shlibdeps warnings:
    dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libfontconfig.so.1 could be avoided if "debian/nted/usr/bin/nted" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
    dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libatk-1.0.so.0 could be avoided if "debian/nted/usr/bin/nted" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
    dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libgio-2.0.so.0 could be avoided if "debian/nted/usr/bin/nted" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
    dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libgmodule-2.0.so.0 could be avoided if "debian/nted/usr/bin/nted" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
    dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 could be avoided if "debian/nted/usr/bin/nted" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
  These warnings are still there despite using the --as-needed ld flag.  I
  decide to live with it for the moment: I don't think bypassing pkg-config
  is a good long-term solution.

* Documentation packaging
  I chose to provide both DocBook and HTML files with the nted-doc package:
  The NtEd online help uses yelp and DocBook files whereas dwww needs the
  HTML files.
