cygwin-doc html/ missing docbook.css and index dups cygwin-{api,ug-net}

[Brian Inglis]

Hi folks, 

Package cygwin-doc files

	/usr/share/doc/cygwin-2.8.0/html/cygwin-{api,ug-net}/*.html 

all contain references to docbook.css: 

	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="docbook.css">

but docbook.css is missing from the .../html/cygwin-{api,ug-net}/
directories.

Could you please add docbook.css to the .../html/cygwin-{api,ug-net}/
directories in the cygwin-doc package.

Could you please consider having setup-x86{,_64} install Windows
shortcuts to at least the UG .pdf and index.html if present, in the
.../Start Menu/Programs/Cygwin folder? 
A Windows URL shortcut to https://cygwin.com would also be helpful for
some.

Under .../html/cygwin-{api,ug-net}/ index.html duplicates the contents
of cygwin-{api,ug-net}.html: to avoid duplication, each index.html could
be replaced by a file containing only an HTML "symlink": 

	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;cygwin-api.html">
or
	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;cygwin-ug-net.html">


NIT: Why are these files installed in /usr/share/doc/cygwin-v.r.p/html/,
rather than the expected /usr/share/doc/cygwin/html/, where I would
expect cygwin-doc to install them, and where for some time I have been
downloading and installing my own copies from cygwin.com!

Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

I applied a patch for that.

index.html will be installed as hardlink next time.

That requires to change setup or to provide a postinstall script.
Are you willing to provide the latter?

Thank you.

I am not aware of any arguments passed to postinstall scripts, so a 
/etc/postinstall/cygwin-doc.sh would have to check for the folders 
"$(cygpath -APU)"/Cygwin or "$(cygpath -PU)"/Cygwin, cd there, 
mkshortcut(s), then cd back, as mkshortcut does not support folders, 
as far as I can tell. 
The postinstall script would also have to run elevated as admin to 
make shortcuts in AllUsers/ProgramData, from what I have found.
An /etc/preremove/cygwin-doc.sh script would also have to be 
provided to remove those shortcuts.
Any problems with that approach or improvements you could suggest?

If I was doing that, I would probably also like to add URL 
shortcuts to the Cygwin page and FAQ. Would that be best done 
by adding .URLs to /usr/share/doc/cygwin-???/ and postinstall 
them in the Start Menu or postinstall mkshortcut(s) to the URLs?

This needs documenting, but when running postinstall scripts, Cygwin 
setup sets the CYGWINFORALL env var to "-A" if installing for "All 
Users" [1], for exactly this purpose.

Darn - hoped you wouldn't ask - attached, and preremove (if not filtered).
Both tested on W10 without, and with CYGWINFORALL=-A and elevated/admin rights.
Comments or improvements you could suggest, or changes you need made?

Well spotted - nit-picker ;^> - remnant from the systematic 
refactoring of a copy of postinstall down to the two line 
preremove.

Only whitespace which I fixed locally.

But this is going to become part of the Cygwin repo (the cygwin-docs
package is created from there), so I need a BSD copyright waiver from
you.  See https://cygwin.com/contrib.html and the CONTRIBUTORS file in
the Cygwin repo:
https://cygwin.com/git/?p=newlib-cygwin.git;f=winsup/CONTRIBUTORS;hb=HEAD
