Synopsis - Issue Tracker

Here is the bug report you have been asking for ;)

Building the reference manual of synopsis from within the build environment fails. I did the following:

$ python setup.py config
...
$ python setup.py build
...
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`/build/ctemp.linux-x86_64/src/lib/
$ export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.4/
$ python setup.py build_doc --ref-manual --html
...
/usr/bin/python synopsis.py html --output=html/python python.syn
ERROR: stylesheet /home/andreas/Projects/debian/synopsis-0.9/build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.4/share/Synopsis/html.css doesn't exist
make: *** [html/python] Fehler 1
rm python.xref
make: Leaving directory `/home/andreas/Projects/debian/synopsis-0.9/build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.4/doc/Manual'
error: command 'make' failed with exit status 2

A workaround is to manually copy the share/Synopsis directory into the build tree:

mkdir build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.4/share
cp -R share/Synopsis build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.4/share
python setup.py build_doc --ref-manual --html
rm -rf build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.4/share

I have attached the complete build log.

Thanks,

Andreas

I changed the way the 'Synopsis.config.datadir'
variable is generated during build.

Can you give this a try again and report whether it
works better now ?

ping ?

Thanks for the ping - I am currently a littlebit busy :( Anyway, I updated my workspace and I can confirm that the creation of the manual inside the workspace now works :) Do you already have a plan for the 0.91 release date?

Thanks & Best Regards, 
Andreas

Thanks for confirming !
I don't have a precise data yet. I'd like to fine-tune the synopsis.spec file that hopefully
will be used to generate (official !) fedora
packages. No further changes are planned.
