Building the documentation of a package that must already be installed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi list,

I recently wanted to update the Fedora package of gcovr
(https://github.com/gcovr/gcovr). However, I have hit the following
problem: the gcovr doc is build via sphinx, but it won't build unless
gcovr is installed, both the binary and the python package.

A little background: gcovr is a Python package and is build & installed
via setuptools. This means that before `setup.py install` has run, the
package is not available to Python and the binary gcovr was not created
yet. It would be ideal for the documentation to build it after the
%install section (e.g. in the %check section, but that is certainly
prohibited).


Cheers,

Dan
