Hi guys,

I would like to ask, if it would be possible, to make dh_sphinxdoc to process
*-stemmer.js files (base-stemmer.js, german-stemmer.js and so on) for
replacing with symlinks to /usr/share/sphinx/search/non-minified-js/ ?

I see there are other variants of that files in the minified-js folder,
so I'm not sure, if this approach is do-able at all ...


Thanks for your time

So long
Holger

Hello,

Bug #1073497 in sphinx reported by you has been fixed in the
Git repository and is awaiting an upload. You can see the commit
message below and you can check the diff of the fix at:

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/sphinx/-/commit/c50d8847e3bb22dc0c5f9552ab2014d86a00e2db
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make dh_sphinxdoc remove *-stemmer.js files.

Sphinx installs these files as source for minified JS, but there is no
need to ship them in the binary packages. Users who need them can take
them from sphinx-common package.

Closes: #1073497.
