Note I think we can "remove" the install/ and onlinedocs/ _landing_ pages (index.html) but we should keep the actual content pages so old links keep working. We can also replace the landing pages with a pointer to the new documentation (or plain re-direct to that!).
For install, I think we should consider to redirect. Before the move to Sphinx, we had only: binaries.html build.html configure.html download.html finalinstall.html gfdl.html index.html prerequisites.html specific.html test.html Re-directing them to the new pages will work. There is a one-to-one correspondence for all but build/test which are now in 7* and 5 files, respectively. Still linking to the outermost should be ok as I do not think that there will be many links using '#...'. (*The subdivision is also a bit pointless for Ada and D as it consists only of the texts "GNAT prerequisites." and "GDC prerequisites.", respectively (in the old doc). In the Sphinx docs, it is even shortened to: "GNAT." and "GDC.".) The only except where links to page anchors are likely used is for "Host/target specific installation notes for GCC". For them, some like '#avr' still works while others don't (like 'nvptx-*-none' as '#nvptx-x-none' changed to '#nvptx-none'). But the page is short enough and it is clear from the context what the user wants - there is also a table of content on the right to click on. (IMHO that's sufficient.) * * * For /onlinedocs/, I concur that we want to have the old doc there as there are many deep links. Still, we should consider adding a disclaimer box to all former mainline documentation stating that this data is no longer updated + point to the new overview page + we could redirect access which goes directly to '..../<module>/' and not a (sub)html page to the new site, as you proposed.
