reassign 687293 libghc-hakyll-doc 3.2.7.2-1 tags 687293 -patch retitle 687293 Please make links inside <a href= tags relative
> Package: dwww > Version: 1.11.8 > Severity: normal > Tags: patch > Hi, > Some document packages link to absolute path /usr/share/doc/. They probably shouldn't do this, since it make it impossible to view the pages in other ways than using direct file:// links (e.g accessing the pages through dwww or http://localhost/doc/ won't work.) > But the link is miss on http://localhost/cgi-bin/dwww/, because dwww return > raw html file. > Example. libghc-hakyll-doc package has > /usr/share/doc/libghc-hakyll-doc/html/Hakyll-Web-Blaze.html. > But > http://localhost/cgi-bin/dwww/usr/share/doc/libghc-hakyll-doc/html/Hakyll-Web-Blaze.html > has link to > http://localhost/usr/share/doc/ghc-doc/html/libraries/base-4.5.0.0/Data-String.html. It would be better if the Hakyll-Web-Blaze.html links could be changed (together with other similar ones inside the package) into the relative ones, i.e. ../../ghc-doc/html/.... instead of implementing work-arounds in dwww, that's why I'm reassigning the bug. > > How about this patch that change /usr/share/doc/ to > /cgi-bin/dwww/usr/share/doc/ ? As I wrote above, I don't think implementing such kind of work-around is a good idea. Besides, the patch will most probably change for example output of http://localhost/cgi-bin/dwww/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/policy.html/ch-docs.html#s12.3 .
