First off a ton of work has been done to the documents this year to convert from lyx... and my hat is off to the guys who made it happen.


Mine hat is off too, John. Since I didn't help in the conversion, perhaps I can help in the checking.

Just looking at the 2.5 HTML docs at linuxcnc.org

The Other languages available: Deutsch <http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/2.5/html/index_de.tmpl> Español <http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/2.5/html/index_es.tmpl> Français <http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/2.5/html/index_fr.tmpl> links give this error "Error: '' is not in '/home/jepler/docs' [17]"

The links in the table of contents brings up the home page but with what seems the correct url but missing a part with a # for a placeholder for example "http://www.linuxcnc.org/#_minimum_requirements"; show up in the url bar but the home page is what is displayed. I'm not sure what generates the TOC's

After building the 2.5 docs and I see about 277 doc building errors "Error: no ID for constraint linkend:..." which is broken links I think. This could be the result of moving all the hardware driver chapters and parallel port driver out of the Integrators Manual, I don't know.


I get only 91 of these errors when I built EMC2 2.5.0~pre2 in a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04LTS. Curious.

I also get 161 warnings of various types, many of which (like the 17 "md5 module is deprecated" messages) probably can be safely ignored, but a few may be telling me something useful.

I'm not sure if the following that shows up during make when the pdf's are built is something to do with the strange red and blue squares that show up around links or not in the pdf's now:

Build ...pdf
built-in module pdftex registered
no support found for ifxetex
no support found for fontsec
no support found for xltxtra
no support found for fontenc
no support found for inputenc
no support found for fancybox
built-in module makeidx registered
no support found for emc2


Somehow I doubt these are clues to the cause of the strange squares, but I'll check.

In the PDF's any link in the body takes you to i (the title page).

This is an artifact of the broken links you mentioned above.


The German and Spanish PDF's are in English...

The German and Spanish HTML's are also in English...


The Makefile looks a little funky but I haven't tried to decipher it.

The Getting Started Guide PDF section 5 Upgrading EMC2 contains filler text like the following in 4 sections.

"Put
some
text
here"


I can't help here.

I'll dig deeper into the broken link problem.

Kent
