Bug 77419 – gnome-base/librsvg-2.8.1 : installs its gtk-doc/devhelp API docs in wrong directory

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stephane Loeuillet 2005-01-10 14:10:02 UTC]

librsvg provides some html gtk-doc API docs with a .devhelp index file
devhelp won't find it because all other projects put their doc in :
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/PROJECT[-MAJOR_VERSION]/

but librsvg puts it in :
/usr/share/doc/librsvg/html/

another unusual location is :
/usr/share/devhelp/books/PROJECT[-MAJOR_VERSION]/
but the first location is prefered (gtk-doc/html/)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Created attachment 48232 [details, diff]
fix sent upstream

it fixes the html+devhelp docs location by patching configure.ac

i sent this patch upstream. it has been approved (but not yet applied)

Created attachment 48253 [details, diff]
real fix sent upstream

argh, i attached an old version

this new one is the one approved (and working : .devhelp file name should be
the same as the directory which contains it for devhelp to see it)

Thanks for your work here Stephane, and for sending upstream. I've added a revision 2.8.1-r1 with the fix for the gtk-doc installation.

Thanks.
