1.) Not really, unless you want fasm in /usr/bin and accessible by all users - but FASM is not big enough in size for sharing to be a concern.
2.) Yea the documentation could be better - but I'm impressed with the documentation because everything is in there - Tomasz just used some form of uber compression on it ![]() 3.) I think it could adhere to the policies... perhaps go into contrib? 4.) Don't know, maybe ask one? |

1, Debian includes both GAS and NASM. However I personally don't use a Linux distro, so have no care for it.
2, The Documentation as far as a man page goes, the man page should describe just the command line arguments, with a link to /usr/share/doc/fasm/readme.txt for further documentation. 3, See 1. For Debian the biggest concern would be the FASM license, not the end product itself. As Raedwulf mentions, having it as a contrib package would be a good way to start. Anyway FreeBSD has FASM in it's ports collection... 4, Since FASM is fairly mature and FASM has no dependencies (to other packages) the latest should suffice. For Linux, I would only recommend *.deb and *.rpm... Most distro's can handle both formats with ease, if not, they have a *.tgz package as well... |

Agreed. But how does it come that programs like GNU bash, GNU grep and the GNU find programs have their (IIRC)full documentation included in the manpages? Chewy509 wrote:

Maybe ask Tomasz for permission to release under GPLv2/3?

Is non-GPL a problem against making debian package?
