Description Todd Denniston 2008-03-11 19:24:52 UTC
Description of problem:
The documentation included in the boost-doc rpm is incomplete.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
boost-doc-1.34.1-12.fc9.i386.rpm
boost-1.34.1-12.fc9.src.rpm

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to find crc.html in the doc.rpm
2. rpm -q -p boost-doc-1.34.1-12.fc9.i386.rpm --list |grep -i crc
  
Actual results:
No output.

Expected results:
/usr/share/doc/boost-1.34.1/libs/crc/crc.html
/usr/share/doc/boost-1.34.1/libs/crc/index.html

Alternate reproduction:
1. lynx /usr/share/doc/boost-*/who_s_using_boost_/shrink.html
2. `/crc`
3. follow link
Actual results:
"Alert!: Unable to access document."
Expected results:
loads href="../../../libs/crc/index.html"
"CRC Library
   The header crc.hpp provides two implementations of..."


Additional info:
The package has documentation all over it's source tree. 

After doing an rpmbuild -bp of the package, you basicly need to execute the
following command to find all the documentation that SHOULD be included in the
doc rpm: (executed in %_topdir )
 find BUILD/boost_1_34_1/ -name "*.html"

Fixed in rawhide.  Formerly only "doc" documentation was installed, which is
part of the boost book.  Now we install "libs" in addition.  I verified that crc
documentation in particular is available.

Can you provide an update for previous releases of Fedora (at least F-8)?
