Package-specific documentation #1

Closed michaelklishin closed 12 years ago

michaelklishin commented 12 years ago

zeromq package needs uuid-dev and as far as I can tell, build_depends DSL method did not install it (possibly because compilation and linking happen before it happens?). Is my understanding correct? Should I add a README file under the zeromq directory and send a pull request?

Thanks.

Realized how confusing my original report has been. Updated.

fpm-cookery has no code to handle build depends yet. That's why it does not get installed. :)

So the build_depends DSL method is a no-op for now. The depends method will pass the given dependencies to the fpm call so they will be registered in the .deb.

I need to unslack and add the missing pieces.

That explains it :) What about directory-specific README files? Is it a good idea in your opinion?

Yes, sounds like a good idea to have a conventional place to document special stuff.
