Can you describe the motivation a bit better? js-jquery is tiny, it's a package with basically one file. python-systemd is so tiny too that splitting out a separate -doc package just doesn't seem worth the trouble. And I think it would be a lost battle: if https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/jQuery is implemented, there will be hundreds of packages depending on js-jsquery, so having it installed would be almost unavoidable anyway.

And BTW the "tiny" is relative. python-systemd size is 119k and you don't mind to install another two packages occupying additional 145 % of the disk space?

Compared to the Python stack, this size is completely irrelevant. I'm pretty sure that if I had not split out the jsquery bundling, you'd have never noticed ;) The guidelines say to split out documentation of "significant" size, and I agree with the lack of need to do it for every few text files. > > so having it installed would > > be almost unavoidable anyway. > > And BTW the "tiny" is relative. python-systemd size is 119k and you don't > mind to install another two packages occupying additional 145 % of the disk > space? If the additional two packages are required by another 1455 packages in the distribution, this dependency is "free".

This might or might not happen. And there will be other packages where requiring js-jquery makes functional difference, where this is not true for this particular package. Anyway, I made my point. Feel free to close this issue. Yeah, I'll close this. I'll keep it mind though to revisit the issue if the documentation ever grows to a more significant size. I made the split now, with the main packages having Recommends:python-systemd-doc. I have to agree with Vit here: since python-systemd stills seems to pull in python-systemd-doc via the weak dep so perhaps nothing changed here? I am in rawhide container today and try to install dnf-plugins-core and this pulls in jquery... naively doesn't make so much sense? Though first time I noticed this (is it somehow related with using dnf5?). Does python-systemd use python-systemd-doc? Well I guess a new bug should be opened... |
Description of problem: Would you mind to move the documentation into -doc subpackage? It is weird to have installed js-jquery due to some documentation of python-systemd I definitely don't care about (at least ATM). # dnf update Last metadata expiration check performed 0:40:09 ago on Mon Jul 13 20:03:45 2015.
