Hi Jonas - > Probably a good idea to then raise that issue over at > pkg-javascript-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org > > (since you most likely are not subscribed to that list, please remember > to mention in the email that you want to be cc'ed on replies). I'm not sure there's an issue here that they can help with, unless I misunderstand? The issue is that the SC rendered helpfiles currently have a reference like this: <script src='./MathJax/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS_HTML,scmathjax' type='text/javascript'></script> and if we used the libjs-mathjax package, the rendered helpfiles would have a reference like this: <script src='/usr/share/javascript/mathjax/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS_HTML,scmathjax' type='text/javascript'></script> This is unportable for exported helpfiles and that's why I'd prefer not to do it. It's OK for other software which expects to render the math on-the-fly for the local user and not export it anywhere. (For example ipython-notebook-common depends on the lib - I guess it's doing local math rendering only...) Please let me know what you think. I'll also pass this on to the person who actually did the mathjax bit and see if they have a good way round.
