Re: [Kicad-developers] Problem of kicad-source and kicad-doc Packaging Help Documents

Actually the help documentation is broken on Windows too in the RC.

The help is at C:\Program Files\KiCad\share\doc\kicad\help\en\kicad.pdf

The searched paths are like this:

C:\Program Files\KiCad\kicad.pdf
C:\Program Files\KiCad

It looks like a two-fold problem. The packaging is putting the docs
under share\doc... where I guess it should be share\kicad\doc along
with everything else shared for KiCad.

Secondly the paths being search by the program include
share\kicad\template... which appears wrong. I'd expect it to be
\share\kicad\doc...

Are these assumptions correct? If so, I can file a bug to be fixed.

Best Regards,

Brian.

 Good catch.  The new documentation pdf generation code must have
 inadvertently used Pcbnew.pdf instead of pcbnew.pdf.  I just looked at
 this in the github kicad-doc repo and this also seems to be the case for
 the other pdf files as well.  Would one of our doc devs please fix this

As a PS - I think RC2 looks like it's just round the corner because
not being able to look the help documents is pretty poor.

There's no links to the documentation in the start menu either so we'd
have to point people to the install directory\share\doc\kicad... etc.

Good catch.  The new documentation pdf generation code must have
inadvertently used Pcbnew.pdf instead of pcbnew.pdf.  I just looked at
this in the github kicad-doc repo and this also seems to be the case for
the other pdf files as well.  Would one of our doc devs please fix this

The docs in lp:~kicad-developers/kicad/doc are obsolete.  The latest
docs are on github and are rebuilt whenever changes are made to the git
repo and should be downloaded from there.

It looks like your original problem is that you either did not configure
CMake properly and/or didn't run sudo make install.  You cannot install
the docs in /usr on linux without root privileges.

It looks like your original problem is that you either did not configure
CMake properly and/or didn't run sudo make install.  You cannot install
the docs in /usr on linux without root privileges.



I've been cloning all the sources from the github, as shown here:

|git clone https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror.git git clone 
https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-library.git git clone 
https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-doc.git|


Are they the correct ways to get the latest sources? Did I miss anything?

I also properly used "sudo" when required, so that should not be a factor.

With these sources compiled and installed together, Pcbnew fails when I 
click "Help -> Contents", with an error pop-up window saying "Help file 
'pcbnew' could not be found".


The failure above is inevitable, because the running pcbnew is looking 
for file name "pcbnew.pdf", while the actual doc file name installed as 
"Pcbnew.pdf", noticing the mixed-case capital P in the actual file name.


One way to find out what the actual file name kicad is trying to open, 
you can use Linux command "strace -o /tmp/kicad.out kicad", and then try 
click "Help -> Contents".  And then inspect the file "/tmp/kicad.out"  
for any "*.pdf" file name.  And this is how I found the mixed-case file 
name.


So my debugging shows that the root cause is the mis-matched directory 
names and mixed-case file names, unless I got the source in a wrong way.
