[Bug 1029209] Re: tidy doesn't support html5 syntax

 

To clarify my remark #5:

I love to see the tidy package updated with HTML5 support.

I installed a deb package from https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5. It
was immediately overwritten  as a security update, by the old package
from 2009. Therefore I called it `conflicting`

IMHO a debian repository is an `app-store` avant la lettre. A package
(app) is  different from a program.

The `tidy` package is not maintained (yet) by the developers of the new
tidy program, therefor I call it a fork, that can/should be merged.

It's not about tidy, it's about the deb-package tidy.
