Description Ákos Maróy 2004-07-16 00:02:40 UTC

poseidonCE is looking for documentation in /opt/poseidonCE/docs, whereas the ebuild puts all documentation into /usr/share/doc/poseidonCE-2.4.1

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge poseidonCE
2. start poseidonCE
3. select Help->Open FAQ (or Open Users Guide, etc.)
4. see the error that the documentation can not be found under file:///opt/poseidonCE/docs/FAQ.html

Actual Results:  
the documentation was not found

Expected Results:  
the documentation should have been shown

an easy solution is to add a symlink:

ln -s /usr/share/doc/poseidonCE-2.4.1/html /opt/poseidonCE/docs

and all works fine. would be nice if the ebuild itself did that...
