Hi!
The ubuntu-docs package has been converted to serve as a supplement to
gnome-user-guide. To watch the current state of the 17.10 desktop guide
locally, install both packages from artful and run:
yelp help:gnome-help
I have experimented with building the HTML from the installed files, and
my impression is that doing so might be a reasonably convenient method
going forward, after all.
Follow these steps to try out the method:
* Install ubuntu-docs from
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
* Install the artful version of gnome-user-guide from
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user-docs
(Note that you don't need to be on artful - the packages can be
installed on e.g. 16.04 or 17.04.)
* Get an updated ubuntu-docs trunk branch
* cd to the html folder and run:
make -f Makefile-from-installed (instead of just "make")
make -f Makefile-from-installed install
Some keyboard-key-*.svg icons are missing, which has been reported in
<https://bugs.debian.org/861869>.
