I noticed, the package consists of intermediate files from docs generation process of Boost.Geometry:

/libs/geometry/doc/doxy/doxygen_output/html_by_doxygen /libs/geometry/doc/doxy/doxygen_output/xml

May I ask how documentation of individual library makes it into the package?

For reference here's where the release building script starts the doc building < https://github.com/boostorg/release-tools/blob/develop/ci_boost_release.py#L...

.

Essentially it calls b2 in the boost-root/doc dir. Which, in a rather complicated b2 way, boils down to building the boostrelease and boostdoc targets of every library that has them. We then try and clean up some extra temp files < https://github.com/boostorg/release-tools/blob/develop/ci_boost_release.py#L165>. And finally package up the entire tree for all the archive formats.

/libs/geometry/doc/Jamfile.v2 calls our custom make_qbk.py script

...

which is known to not to do any post-generation clean-ups of intermediate files. Shall we add such cleanup to make_qbk.py or it is not relevant for release process?

I would greatly appreciate if you added that cleanup. Since you know exactly what to clean up instead of me guessing. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
