STINNER Victor added the comment: Another option (don't know if it's a good idea or not) is to not include any README file in the installer. Is it really worth it? Why not pointing to docs.python.org/3.7/ for example? Or suggest to install the "Windows help file" package?
I just checked on my Fedora 25: the python3 package includes /usr/share/doc/python3/README file. I also checked if any other package include .rst doc: I found a lot of them. As you may expect, most Python packages. But for example, the "dnf" system tool used to manage packages only uses a README.rst file which even includes a reference to an external image: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/gh-pages/logos/DNF_logo.png You can find dnf README file at: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/blob/master/README.rst Other examples of packages including reST doc (excluding python*): devassistant, koji, vex, fpaste, pypy, git-review, hawkey, subunit, libbytesize, etc. Ah just to be clear: Fedora packages provide reST as plain text, .rst files, not HTML. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29579> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
