Is there something that makes installing dia more challenging than the
other documentation build tools?
Err, I dunno -- it's just an apt-get away for me, but what will Tom say
when it doesn't work on his ancient HP-UX 10.20 system?
I don't try to build the docs on that box anyway --- it does have
openjade but such an old version that they don't build. In practice
building the docs already takes much more modern infrastructure than
compiling the source code; and besides there are many fewer people
who care about doing it.
A more interesting question is whether Marc can install a working
version of dia on whatever he uses to wrap the tarballs.
One more issue is that the dia and png files are going to impact our
download sizes:
526k ./dia
483k ./png
If we generate the png from the dia files, we are looking at increasing
the source download by 526k and the binary downloads by 483k for all
existing images and, of course, as we add images, these sizes will
increase.
Which brings me to a point I brought up before ... do we want to start
looking at a dist file split similar to what Devrim does for packages?
lib vs client vs server vs docs vs ... ? where each could be invididually
built, or requires a prev set (ie. client would require lib first) sort of
thing ...
