Installing app-doc/php-docs results in the html files going in /usr/share/doc/${PF}/html correctly as per the dohtml script. However, a future ebuild of gPHPEdit relies on them being in a certain place (for context sensitive help). I don't mind changing where gPHPEdit looks for them, but it's going to be awful to have to code in a different potential location every time a new ebuild of php-docs is released. Can the docs be installed in a single location, such as /usr/share/doc/php-docs/ so I can check for the presence of files in that location? Just to be clear, when I say a future ebuild of gPHPEdit, the version that does this is already released and is available to Red Hat users via RPM and all other users via tarball - but it won't work on Gentoo because of the location of the php-docs changing with every release. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: Installed in /usr/share/doc/php-docs/(html?)
you probably have a point, but we don't have much time for trivial issues atm
This is something for the PHP herd.
as it's general gentoo pracice to keep everything in /usr/share/doc trying to be under a directory named $PF, would a symlink at /usr/share/php-docs pointing to the actual location be fine? (gtk-doc currently exists in this fashion at /usr/share/gtk-doc/
Hi, This has been fixed by app-doc/php-docs-20050822, which you can currently find in the Gentoo PHP Overlay. Please test, and confirm whether or not this fixes your fault. If you're happy with the fix, we'll get this updated package into Portage as soon as possible. Best regards, Stu
