Patrick, Thank you for the information. Especially for the comparison matrix. I see now that I'm OK with the online documentation.

All packages are loaded into a clean database as part of the 'make check' command in the demo directory. This is done prior to every source release. We are performing some checks to see if we can determine what could have failed building this vad using the debian build method. We will let you know as soon as we find any issue and will make sure this is fixed in the next release of VOS. > Package 'doc' (version 1.1.18) seems to be incomplete > - the local pdf is missing (a minor issue, I agree, but a symptom?) That is because the build process to produce the pdf document is a bit peculiar and i think needs some tools not available on every platform. We are trying to see if we can fix this for some upcoming release. This document can always be downloaded from: http://docs.openlinksw.com/pdf/virtdocs.pdf For the full documentation you can always go to: http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso this site always has the most up-to-date documentation and will certainly be newer than the snapshot. > - topics are missing (RDF Data Access and Data Management is topic > 14 rather than 16 in http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/ - 2 topics > missing) There are some chapters missing from the documentation that have to do with functionality that is only available in the commercial version of the documentation. The documentation on docs.openlinksw.com are the full set of docs, including chapters on Clusters, Geo Index, Virtual Database and Replication. For list of differences between Commercial and Open Source edition, please also read: http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com/features-comparison-matrix/ > - in the RDF Data Access and Data Management topic (the one I'm > interested in to start with), > chapters are missing ('Extensions' - really useful, and: this > functionality is available in the build) Please use the online docs for now.

They are in sync with what was available in source form at the time the snapshot was produced.
