Martin, I'd like to suggest the following: a) Install html files in $docdir/html so that the docompress line can be dropped. b) Include prebuilt html files in the release archive so USE=doc can be dropped. I don't see the point to having an extra dep for [only] 2 files. Thanks.

This is not a question of eix but of the ebuild: Just keep the ./configure option --htmldir="${EPREFIX}/usr/share/doc/${PF}/html" (as in older eix ebuilds) and remove the src_install function. The disadvantage is that it appears a bit strange to have a subdirectory for only 2 files. (In the svn trunk, I treat eix-xml.xsd now as doc and not as html - not sure whether it will stay this way.) Another possibility might be to install everything in $docdir and compress the html: The few developers who need the files can uncompress them before reading them (see below)... > b) Include prebuilt html files in the release archive so USE=doc can be > dropped. I don't see the point to having an extra dep for [only] 2 files. I modified the build system in the svn trunk such that they are shipped, and I removed --with-rst However, instead I added --with-extra-doc: It appears a bit strange to install a lot documentation on everybody's system (among them about 30k uncompressed(!) html) which is actually only of interest for the very few people developing applications based on eix. So I suggest to keep IUSE=doc but to change $(use_with doc rst) into $(use_with_doc extra-doc) Of course, the DEPEND on dev-utils/docutils can vanish in any case for the new tarballs.
