Re: Two questions about the installed files of (py)zim
Oh, sorry. I was with something wrong.
Just for Fedora, a package should not contain unexecutable files with shebangs. But the two files
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/zim/_version.py
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/zim/_lib/xdot.py
contain shebangs. So in the package build process, I have to specifically remove the shebangs in these files.
