Description Esben Mose Hansen 2003-10-04 02:45:21 UTC
Could we have a new version of this? It would only involve making a new version  
of the packed version availble at distmirrors and copying the existing ebuild. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge howto-html 
2.Open a howto in a browser 
 
Actual Results:  
3.Exclaim --- hey, this is TOO old ;-) 

Expected Results:  
3.Exclaim --- hey, these are quite new ;-)

howto-html-single, mini-howto-html, mini-howto-html-single should be updated
as well

Ebuild for html-howto

I think I've whipped up an ebuild for this. Be gentle, this is my first ebuild
:-)
Comment 3 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-04 03:06:42 UTC
don't forget howto-pdf, howto-ps, howto-text, mini-howto-pdf, mini-howto-ps
and mini-howto-text ;)

i don't think you have to post ebuilds for it, it's fairly simple to update
;) but next time mark them ~arch 
Comment 5 Esben Mose Hansen 2003-10-04 03:17:20 UTC
Actually, I don't think it's a very good ebuild. I guessing it will only
work today :-/ Ideally, the ebuilds could just download the newest version
avaible, but that would clash with the current update system, so I guess
the best solution would be to find a place to mirror the specific version
--- as was done in the original ebuilds. However, I don't have the access
to do that.

I'll remember about the keywords next time, though I doubt that these ebuilds
can actually harm anything :o)

Anyway, I'll shut up now.

Sorry, but the documentation team can't really do something about this. Not
our domain.
Comment 7 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-06 06:41:16 UTC
all bumped, mini-howtos are now official included in howtos
