Wed 24 Jan 2024 04:44:06 PM UTC, comment #9: In the docs directory with the other documentation files for that package. The PKG_ADD calls octave to add the doc link for the octave help on pkg load/unload	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Wed 24 Jan 2024 07:13:34 AM UTC, comment #8: Thanks for that. Another question: where for the generated .qh files get installed, such that they are found by the Octave Qt GUI?	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
Fri 19 Jan 2024 01:19:49 PM UTC, comment #7: Will also do for the rest of the packages i am maintaining with docs: arduino, cfitsio, netcdf, mqtt, joystick, raspi, signal, sqlite	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Thu 18 Jan 2024 06:34:58 PM UTC, comment #6: Great, thanks! As you are at it, you might also make similar changes on the audio, dicom, instrument-control, and zeromq packages.	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
Thu 18 Jan 2024 01:24:20 PM UTC, comment #5: ok - i updated the toplevel make to not remove them when making the package. At some point I may move them to a build tools directory so they dont get installed.	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Thu 18 Jan 2024 07:36:59 AM UTC, comment #4: Thanks for this reminder. The Qt docs are not currently generated when building the Debian packages, but we might consider doing it in the future.	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
Wed 17 Jan 2024 09:40:20 PM UTC, comment #3: How about the qt docs generated using mkqhcp.py	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Wed 17 Jan 2024 07:16:52 PM UTC, comment #2: From the perspective of a user using "pkg install", I guess you are right (even though the files doc/*.texi in the tarball get installed, and they are useless for the user). I made my request as the maintainer of the Debian package octave-sockets. In the process of building the package, the documentation is compiled from source. At any rate, if you think that including mkfuncdocs.py in the tarball is inappropriate, this is fine at our side. We are patching the Debian package in order to include the file, taken from the upstream Git repository.	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
Wed 17 Jan 2024 02:19:29 PM UTC, comment #1: Not that adding it makes any real difference I guess, but if its left in the docdir in the release tarball, it will also be installed for anyone using pkg install. Doesnt the documentation get built as part of the release so it doesnt have to be built vs the sources that tarball that also contains the top level makefile etc or am I missing something ?	John Donoghue <lostbard>
Wed 17 Jan 2024 06:49:11 AM UTC, original submission: Please, add file doc/mkfuncdocs.py to the tarball in the next release, such that it will be possible to build the documentation from source.	Rafael Laboissière <rlaboiss>
