Hi,

The old server providing live.debian.net has been shutdown. The hosted
versions of the live-manual package should now be located on the
debian-live group's Alioth webspace instead now.

This means setting up automated builds of stable/unstable (and
optionally testing/git) versions of live-manual.

The means by which this is set up should be documented on the wiki at:

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/live-manual

Thanks,
Iain.

machines / included on the Debian website?

In this case, I would vote for using the same mechanism as currently used
for all the other documents under www.debian.org/doc.
That is: the documents are not being built in particular for the debian website;
instead, their respective binary packages from unstable are unpacked, relevant
files (mostly .html or .pdf) are copied to the correct directory, sometimes
renamed, and that's it.

To get a manual updated on the Debian website, one just needs to upload a
new version to unstable, and the rest is done auto-magic-ally :-)



To make this happen, changes for two git repos are needed:
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/cron
and
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml


I have prepared (and tested) patches for both; attached.

That would add the 'all-in-one-html-file' variant of live-manual to
https://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals

I have also added a built of the devel-manuals html page, to give an idea,
how it might look like.

Holger

Hello Holger,

Yes.

Good idea.

Currently the latest and greatest version is automatically generated by
Salsa on every git commit.

https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/index.en.html

The last release of the package was in 2015... so a new package upload
is due.

I'll fill in the missing spots soon.

With kind regards,
Roland
