build.sh --install does not install manual pages or documentation

Open grawlinson opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Whilst packaging this for the AUR, I noticed that the --install step only installs the binaries, not the man pages or documentation.

Is this intentional?

Slightly off-topic: This is already packaged for the AUR (as I'm sure you're aware) in the way the developer requested as a VCS package. I was originally going to add the stable version, but he asked me not to as he doesn't really do "releases" per say. I can't find the issue where we talked about it, maybe it was an email.

It was intentional, yeah. The manual pages were an "in-progress" feature that may or may not have been generated properly, and I wanted it to be opt-in.

After reevaluating my reasons for not including the manuals by default (i.e. they might be broken), I decided to change --install to install them alongside the scripts themselves. I haven't really had anyone bring up issues with the manuals themselves since I created them, so it seems about time to include them officially.

Changed in abda988cbd8ea532674a3d7fa6d932220d12ab9d.

@grawlinson Now might be a good time to update the Arch community package :point_up: :wink:
