Hi,

you are providing a simple script which builds a web page with an
overview about installed meta packages which belong to a Custom
Debian Distribution in

   /usr/share/doc/junior-doc/examples/scripts/list-junior.sh

I would suggest to enhance this script a little bit to make this
script helpful also for other distributions.  A patch which allows
just to rename (or place a symlink for example to list-med.sh) is
attached.

Thanks for maintaining junior-* packages

         Andreas.

I appreciate the patch, but I really don't want to perpetuate my ugly hack.
That's why it was merely an example script -- it is by nature fragile.  Bug
#136097 remains on the books, and I should like to see it resolved (or find
a better way to come up with the list) before making this script general-
purpose.

Ben

Sure. I just wanted to make sure that *any* hack would work for all
Custom Debian Distributions.  While writing on my paper I was mentioning
the hack and making it working (anyhow - it's a hack even) for other
stuff was quite easy.
Sure.  It more or less served as an example that we *do not really have tools*
to work with Custom Debian Distributions.  For this purpose it was fine. ;-)
I just asked about the status of this bug ...

Kind regards

         Andreas.
