Subject: missing /usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html/* in python2.3-dev
Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2004 23:17:19 -0700
Package: python2.3-dev
Version: 2.3.4-5

The following directory is not created, 
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html

and I would expect that python2.3-dev is to blame.

Without 
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html/icons
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html/style.css
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html/about.dat

it is not possible to create HTML manuals using mkhowto, e.g., 
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/templates/howto.tex will fail with an error-message
"No such file or directory".

When I manually created and populated the directory as outline above everything
works.

Best,
Joachim

works fine for me:

cp -a /usr/lib/python2.3/doc/templates /tmp/howto
cd /tmp/howto
/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/tools/mkhowto howto.tex

That doesnt work for me, but gives:

/usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html/*  is not created - when I manually create 
and populate it
from the python source everything is fine.

Where does your configuration store 'about.dat', 'style.css' and 
'icons/*', and how does
mkhowto know where to find them (unless they are in 
(usr/lib/python2.3/doc/html)?
