# Debian GAP Policy
Chapter 6 - Documentation

GAP packages come usually with extensive documentation.

1. TeX files used by the online help system must be shipped.

2. Documentation must be shipped preferably in `html` and `pdf`.

3. Ship the file `manual.toc` compressed. This enables `SetHelpviewer()` to function properly.

4. If you need to use the script `etc/convert.pl`, set the environment variable `GAP_CONVERT_DATE` to the string appearing as the date in the original manual (e.g. `GAP_CONVERT_DATE="Februar 2010"`, `GAP_CONVERT_DATE` is not interpolated).
