Description:   Opened: 2004-03-29 09:48 0000 
The mgetty ebuild includes the vgetty voice extensions, but does not install
the voice documentation, some of which is particularly worthwhile &
interesting, should one wish voicemail capabilities. There are also some
scripts supplied for handling fax functions - emailing of incoming faxes, for
instance. The ebuild does not install these.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge mgetty
2. look for voice documentation or the fax scripts mentioned at
<http://www.leo.org/~doering/mgetty/mgetty_19.html#SEC19> as being in
`samples/new_fax.*'

Actual Results:  
I couldn't find them

Expected Results:  
Installed the documentation

Patch to install voice docs & sample fax-handling scripts

I'm new to making patches, so I hope I did it right. I used this command:
$ diff /usr/portage/net-dialup/mgetty/mgetty-1.1.30.ebuild
/usr/local/portage/net-dialup/mgetty/mgetty-1.1.30.ebuild > mgetty.docs.patch

Created an attachment (id=39603) [edit]
mgetty-1.1.30-r1.patch

adapted original patch for mgetty-1.1.30-r1

------- Comment #3 From Joe Stroller 2004-09-14 14:22:42 0000 ------- 
Surely the "doc" use flag is not necessary for this..?
The examples should be installed by default.

I point you to this posting <http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=1jB6D-2wo-11%40gated-at.bofh.it&output=gplain> which tends to confirm my understanding that the "doc" USE flag should be used for a good reason.

In this case the examples are neither large & space-consuming, nor do they have to undergo some slow conversion into some other format.

applied the patch, the samples are installed without doc, the rest still needs
use=doc
