On my Debian box:
aptitude install dblatex
...........
"Need to get 465MB of archives. After unpacking 783MB will be used."

Hmmm, I'll pass on that for now (0.5Gb just to create a pdf I won't look at)!

What is the process for fixing the documentation?

via git 
or 
via the wiki

I think directly on the wiki, and then import into the codebase for releases.


NB I don't think Viking comes under the 'Development' category (viking.omf.in)! Probably "Science" is best, at least that matches the Debian Gnome menu entry.
