Documentation generator manual links to wrong dir

Open LadyAleena opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

In the Documentation generator menu the manual links to /usr/share/doc/geany-plugins/geanygendoc/html/manual.html and not /usr/share/doc/geany-plugin-gendoc/manual.html.

This is in Geany 1.33-1 on Debian 10 (buster) in XFCE 4.12.5.

This sounds like a packaging issue, our sources don't have anything regarding geany-plugin-gendoc.

According to https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/amd64/geany-plugin-gendoc/filelist the manual is installed in another location than the plugin expects. I wonder if the build system should handle this or Debian must patch the paths. @hyperair @evgeni?

@LadyAleena could you whether other plugins' help do work? E.g. try "Scope" or "Commander"?

I've not touched geany packaging for, uhm, a while. Sorry.

Does the build system have any way of specifying that plugin data is different to the normally defined place relative to $prefix?

@eht16 It's a packaging bug, sorry. I'll get to fixing it soon. The upstream build system already installs these files in the same place that the plugin code expects to find them, but it got moved around in downstream packaging.

Fixed in 2.0-6, sorry for the delay
