As lintian (a Debian package checker) mentions, it is more clever to install it without the extension, since the implementation language might change.

Dear package maintainer,
|
||
|
||
thanks for packaging i3. By doing so, you are improving your distribution
|
||
and i3 in general.
|
||
|
||
Please read the file DEPENDS now, so you know which libraries are necessary
|
||
and where to get them from if your distribution does not already have
|
||
packages for them.
|
||
|
||
Please make sure the manpage for i3 will be properly created and installed
|
||
in your package.
|
||
|
||
Also please provide the path to a suitable terminal emulator which is installed
|
||
as a dependency of your package (e.g. urxvt). On systems which have a special
|
||
commend to launch the best available terminal emulator, please use this one
|
||
(e.g. x-terminal-emulator on debian).
|
||
|
||
On debian, this looks like this:
|
||
|
||
# Compilation
|
||
$(MAKE) TERM_EMU=x-terminal-emulator
|
||
$(MAKE) -C man
|
||
|
||
# Installation
|
||
$(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/ install
|
||
mkdir -p $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
|
||
cp man/*.1 $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
|
||
|
||
Please make sure that i3-migrate-config-to-v4 and i3-config-wizard are
|
||
installed with i3. The Perl script is necessary to (automatically) convert v3
|
||
configs to v4. The wizard provides the possibility to create a keysym-based
|
||
config with the user’s preferred modifier and should be started on the first
|
||
start of i3 (it will automatically exit if it finds a config file).
|
||
|
||
If you have any questions, ideas, hints, problems or whatever, please do not
|
||
hesitate to contact me. I will help you out. Just drop me an E-Mail (find the
|
||
address at http://michael.stapelberg.de/Kontakt, scroll down to bottom),
|
||
contact me using the same address in jabber or ask on our IRC channel:
|
||
(#i3 on irc.twice-irc.de).
|
||
|
||
Thanks again for your efforts,
|
||
Michael
