Hi,
Hi Joel,
Most of the broken links (in the Python tutorial) is in the boostbook auto-generated header (at the top)
broken link: ../../index.htm, broken link: ../../more/faq.htm, broken link: ../../more/index.htm, broken link: ../../people/people.htm, broken link: libraries.html
I'm not sure of the proper way to fix this. Shouldn't boostbook automatically generate the proper links?
It does.
Is this a boostbook bug? Or, am I not using boostbook properly?
The latter. The BoostBook stylesheets employ the aptly named "boost.root" parameter to determine the relative location of the Boost root directory. If your docs are not located in the "$BOOST_ROOT/doc/html" directory, you need to override the default "../.." with more appropriate value in your jamfile. In your case, something like this should do the job: boostbook tutorial : tutorial.xml : <xsl:param>boost.root=../../../../../.. ;
I'll correct the other broken links, those which I have a control over.
Thank you! -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
