#1505 closed defect (fixed)

debian doesn't install a readable omc_helptext.txt

Reported by: jhanley Owned by: jhanley
Priority: low Milestone:
Component: Installation program Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: Cc: jhanley,

Description

Repeat-by:  add "deb http://build.openmodelica.org/apt release contrib" to /etc/apt/sources.list on wheezy and then "apt-get install openmodelica", and open OMShell, which explains you can type help() for help.

help()
"No such file"
ERROR: Error opening file: /usr/share/doc/omc/omc_helptext.txt.


Fix-by: $ sudo gunzip -v /usr/share/doc/omc/omc_helptext.txt.gz
/usr/share/doc/omc/omc_helptext.txt.gz:     64.8% -- replaced with /usr/share/doc/omc/omc_helptext.txt

and then help() works fine.  Just a minor packaging detail to be tidied up.

This is fixed for any new build. The cutoff point for apt to compress a txt-file was 4kB. So when I updated the file due to some changes made to omc... It grew from 3.8 to 4.2kB... Weird noone noticed this for a few months :)

It is fixed for any new builds made (so ~21 hours from now for nightly; for stable as soon as the testsuite works fully again; next release by Christmas I am guessing).
