[Bug 243782] Re: VirtualBox (OSE) is missing documentation
hi, with the VirtualBox Installation a UserManual (english) (somethimg like 230 p. as it is multiplatform) finds it's onto the users machine harddrive disk. Rarely anyone lokks this to find out what was installed, even as it's easy. For each installed Version it's installed into /usr/share/docs/virtualbox-x.xx/UserManual.pdf. (x.xx stands for Version e.g 2.10 or 3.16). So why not enhance this on Installation, to make a symlink appear in the menu? On a windows install procedure this is a standard. Virtualbox does a perfect Documentation with the User Manual, in my eyes.

The virtualbox-guest-utils package also completely lacks any documentation.

[Bug 243782] Re: VirtualBox (OSE) is missing documentation
Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=483702 seems to address this, albeit in an indirect manner; apparently, the manual cannot be shipped with Virtualbox in Debian for licensing reasons. Presumably, Ubuntu could and probably should include the manual, since Ubuntu has more relaxed criteria for what can be included. Upstream bugs http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2364 (manual) and http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2365 (web site) request virtualbox.org to relicense their documentation so that it could be included in Debian. If the documentation cannot be shipped with the virtualbox-ose package, perhaps the Help Contents menu item should simply be disabled. There's still the link to the Virtualbox web site in the Help menu. More tangentially, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=440609 notes that there are also no manual pages. -- VirtualBox (OSE) is missing documentation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 243782] Re: VirtualBox (OSE) is missing documentation
The tentative answer from Virtualbox is that they will not change the license. The source does not include the manual, but the manual (at least a PDF) can be downloaded from their site. -- VirtualBox (OSE) is missing documentation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
