Hi, an app I maintain recently gained a help menu. It expects to find
the single help.html file in /usr/share/help
(ie:
make install helpdir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/help
)
This folder seems to be owned by rarian, and hence doesn't seem to make
sense as location to place this help file.
Is the best approach to patch the src so that it expects to find the
help file in a better location ?
What would that location be ?
ie. maybe:
make install helpdir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/%{name}
, and then adjust src to look there ?
Cheers, David Timms
