Dear Waldek and Ralf, Firstly, thank you very much for your quick replies.

Sorry. > [...] > I'd be happy to discuss the documentation with you when I feel better. Ralf, wish you a speedy recovery! I will look forward to the discussion on the documentation. In the meantime, I will try to follow the instructions (exactly) from 'install.html' and ensure that they work, as suggested by Waldek. > Hmm, "install" clearly failed, as you did not find information how > to rebuild documentation.

Thank you very much for this and for the doc build instructions. This is the first time I installed FriCAS from the sources and I did, in fact, read this section. But, based on the GitHub commit timestamps, my first instinct was to suspect that the instructions are outdated and that the website is built from private sources. Please note that the '_sources' directory in the repo https://github.com/fricas/fricas.github.io does have updated (recent) files, incl. 'install.rst.txt', adding to the confusion. > BTW: You wrote "the website", but really there is no "the" here. > Most up to date information is at SourceForge, <https://fricas.sf.net/> Thank you again for this info. In my (very) biased view, SF is "old world opensource" and GitHub is the "new world opensource;" so when a GitHub repo is available, I invariably (and in this case wrongly) assume that's the latest one. I look forward to discussing with Ralf once he's well and assisting him with the documentation. -- ark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
