Well, `raco pkg update` instead of `raco pkg install`, since that the "html" package is already installed. Also, that will only work with a pre-release version of Racket, since `--clone` was not in v6.1.1. In your attempt raco pkg update --link /path/to/your/html if "html" refers to the whole checkout directory, then that directory is not intended to be a package directory. Instead, each of the four directories within the "html" repo is a separate package. In particular, if "html" above refers to the whole repository, then you ended up with an "html" collection that has an "html" subcollection, an "html-lib" subcollection, and so on. In any case, changing the "html" package won't help. The "html" packages just pulls in the "html-lib" and "html-doc" packages, which have the real implementation. So, you wanted raco pkg update --link /path/to/your/html/html-lib to change the "html-lib" installation. If you're using the development version of Racket, the `--clone` machinery takes care of these details for you, which is why we added it. > On Tue, Feb 17, 2015 at 12:29 AM, Marco Monteiro <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hello! > > > > I've found some issues with the html library and I would like to debug it. > > How do I go about doing it? > > > > Here is my experience so far: > > > > I've cloned https://github.com/racket/html.git. > > > > That has 4 subdirectories.
