Description Christopher Martin 2005-06-14 19:34:57 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

khc_docbookdig.pl gets the location of KDE's documentation by effectively doing this:

`kde-config --prefix`/share/doc/HTML/en

On Debian systems, however, the documentation is located in /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en, making attempts to build a search index futile. To resolve this, khc_docbookdig.pl should more correctly try this:

`kde-config --expandvars --install html`/en

I'll attach a patch which fixes this. Of course, as per bug #102912, htdig still fails to build an index, but at least we're closer :)

Thanks,
Christopher Martin

Can this bug be closed or is your patch not included yet?

Comment 3 Christopher Martin 2012-07-01 16:58:09 UTC

It all seems to work now; given the age of the bug (KDE 3.4), I think it can be closed.
