Search providers are all backed by applications. What's the
application
to read the docs in /usr/share/help? What would be in there other than
the
release notes?
It could be gnome-documents as Matthias proposed if we choose to ship
PDF
instead of a bunch of HTML pages.
It could be yelp as it supports transforming DocBook/Mallard XML as
well as
viewing HTML pages. I just tested it and yelp works quite well:
$ yelp /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-notes/index.html
The right thing to do would probably be to move Release Notes
from /usr/share/doc/ to /usr/share/help/. Indexing /usr/share/help/
would
get users easy access to both downstream (Release Notes) as well as
upstream
documentation (GNOME Help, application help, GNOME System Admin Guide,
etc.).
It would probably be better to have those docs be converted to
something Yelp
can read and integrated in the Help, at least for GNOME and for
Workstation.
Yes, we could do integration in the GNOME Help. Few things would have
to
be figured out, though:
And how do we address this for the spins? A PDF file in ~/Documents
would be enough, including evince in the media (not sure about KDE-based
spins).
