Alexander Shorin updated COUCHDB-1658:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: COUCHDB-1658.1.patch
Patch attached. The idea is based on the fact that /usr/share/couchdb/www/docs
directory is missed if sphinx-build is not available. So we're able to place
dummy index.html there that redirects to online version. Otherwise, sphinx
files will just replace him.

> Probably, it's better to redirect user to online docs (e.g.
> https://couchdb.readthedocs.org/en/{version}/ ) instead of showing "Not
> found." message if CouchDB was built without local docs support. Since
> {version} might not be equal to the branch name, may be take major and minor
> numbers with 'x' joined by dot '.' or set it as 'latest' if 'git' substring
> was found in version.
