#42401: Dia does not include help documentation; offers no variant to build it either --------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ernstke+macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: dia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- With Dia 0.97.2 from MacPorts //and// the packaged .dmg from [http://dia- installer.de dia-installer.de] (derived from MacPorts, according to [http ://dia-installer.de/download/macosx.html this]), choosing 'Help' -> 'Help' results in the following error: {{{ Could not open help directory: Error opening directory '/opt/local/share/dia/help': No such file or directory }}} (The dia-installer.de version actually substitutes `d123456789012345678901234567890...(repeated a bunch of times)` for the 'local' part, not that it matters.) I believe, just based on a cursory inspection, that `./configure --with- hardbooks` may install the appropriate documentation in the place expected by the GUI help menu. I would liked to have attached a patched Portfile, but at this exact juncture, I'm wrestling with freetype to get Dia to build on my OS X 10.7.5 system, so I can't confirm that the `--with- hardbooks` option alone is sufficient to fix the problem. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42401> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
