Package: libboost-doc
Version: 1.34.1-14
Severity: important
Hello,
A lot of links inside the documentation of boost are broken.
For instance the first link of
file:///usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML/doc/concepts.html which is
supposed to link to the root of the boost doc points to
file:///usr/share/doc/index.htm
or later on the same page, the description of the expression
"v.syntax_type(c)" has a link (in the result field that points to
file:///usr/share/doc/boost/regex/v4/syntax_type.hpp which I believe
points to nothing in any debian package.
On the same page the up arrow link points to
file:///usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML/doc/index.html which does not
exist and redirects the browser to
file:///usr/share/doc/doc/html/program_options.html
Some more broken link can be found in
file:///usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML/doc/graph_concepts.html where
the links to the examples/undirected.cpp code points to
file:///usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/HTML/example/undirected.cpp instead
of pointing to
/usr/share/doc/libboost-doc/examples/libs/graph/example/undirected.cpp
Those broken links make the whole documentation quite difficult to use.
Thank you for your time.
Erik
