Remove share/doc from Pbi Packages
0%
Description
I saw pbi packages that are consuming a considerable space in hard disk in comparison with tbz packages.
Does possible remove the directory share/doc in the moment of creation of PBI packages? Or is really necessary to keep these directories.
That would help a lot systems with a small hard discs :)

We try to leave these out already (using the path example from http://wiki.pcbsd.org/index.php/PBI_Module_Builder_Guide )
# Exclude List PBI_EXCLUDELIST="./share/doc"
But apparently it's not being respected for some reason. Will need to test/experiment.

There was a bug in the pbi_makeport code that was causing the exclude list to not be respected. I found and fixed the bug (and mailed a patch to the PBI maintainers) and confirmed that new PBIs will have share/doc removed. A new set of PBIs is building now and they will upload as they go, so this should be OK once they all get built. That may take >24hrs or so.

After reinstall all packages, the doc directory isn't present, and the size decrease :)
