Hi,

on the Debian website at
https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#refcard
there is already the refcard shown for Buster.
That's because the latest upload for refcard (done at Debconf17) was to prepare
refcard for Buster.
So the website shows documentation from unstable, which is in development
state and my be wrong, for example.

(In this particular case, the shown refcard is broken, because of some
problem in the toolchain for pdf creation, maybe some changings in dblatex
or LaTex or the like have caused this.
So if we get a longstanding bug in such tools for creating documentation,
the docs may be broken or unreadable for a long time.)


Is this intended?
Is there a way to change this?

Holger

I see.

Practically all the documents on DDP related documents are published
from the unstable package these days.

For Debian Reference, I keep the current release name as "Stretch" even
if I am uploading to "sid". I switch release name with the upload just
before the release. I think ref-card shuld do the same for the content
of the uploaded package.
