When the value of parameter (i.e. the folder which contains the documentation) ends with "docs", the *.docbook files are installed under <base_doc_dir>/<lang>/<lang>/docs/<appname> instead of the expected <base_doc_dir>/<lang>/docs/<appname> (where <base_doc_dir> is currently <base_prefix>/share/doc/HTML/) The cause of the issue is the way this match line is built: string(REGEX MATCH "docs/(.*)/index.docbook" match ${docbook}) If the parameter ends with "docs", the value of ${docbook} will be something like: .../foodocs/<lang>/docs/<program>/index.docbook and then the content of cmake_match_1 will be: <lang>/docs/<program> instead of the expected: <program> Man pages are not affected (they are handled few lines before). If you use any name for the directory which does not end in docs, the macro works. Please file a new bug (as it is a corner case), or I can do it, I will prepare a patch.

Hi there, happy new year & thanks for your recent efforts. :) > If you use any name for the directory which does not end in docs, > the macro works. Cool, this is my (already successfully tested) workaround for now. Right now I didn't check your patch of kdoctools, yet.
Git commit 938e439db2067381dd3df6a0ea71f50aa73fd310 by Luigi Toscano. Committed on 03/01/2017 at 00:20. Pushed by ltoscano into branch 'master'. kdoctools_install: match the full path for the program Summary: In order to get the name of the program, match against the full path which includes the path of the directory currently scanned for a certain language. So if docs/ appears somewhere in the path, it does not interfere with the matching regular expression and the name of the program is correctly extracted. Test Plan: kdoctools_install(l10n-docs) now works Reviewers: #frameworks, #documentation, aacid Reviewed By: #documentation, aacid Tags: #frameworks, #documentation Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D3912 M +1 -1 KF5DocToolsMacros.cmake https://commits.kde.org/kdoctools/938e439db2067381dd3df6a0ea71f50aa73fd310
