Description:   Opened: 2008-01-09 19:37 0000
dev-lang/R-2.6.1: In the file /usr/share/doc/R-2.6.1/html/packages.html the
paths to the html help files are incorrect. The paths are given as (for
example):
a href="../../library/graphics/html/00Index.html" where the correct path to the
file is:
/usr/lib/R/library/graphics/html/00Index.html
(The file on my amd64 machine is at 
/usr/lib64/R/library/graphics/html/00Index.html)

This exists in R version 2.6.0 and 2.6.1, perhaps others.

Reproducible: Always




I did a search and replace in packages.html, replacing ../../library with
/usr/lib64/R/library and now all seems fine, but I don't know what to fix in
the ebuild, or I would submit a patch. Sorry.

Hi Stuart,

Thanks much for your report and I can see your problem
now. The way I use the docs is by simply typing

help.start()

which should generate a local copy of the docs in /tmp
and fire up a browser with the help index (you may
have to export BROWSER=<your browser here>
before starting R if you don't use one of the defaults).
This way should work fine.

I'll see that I can fix your problem without screwing up
R's help.start() behavior (if possible).

Thanks,
Markus

Fixed in R-2.6.1-r1. Re-open if it still happens after updating.

Thanks.
