The problem is, that boost's HTML-documentation in ${PREFIX}/share/doc/boost contains relative links to those example files, which are broken now. >How-To-Repeat: Have a look at e.g. (assuming ${LOCALBASE} == /usr/local) file:///usr/local/share/doc/boost/libs/graph/doc/connected_components.html, and click on the link in the example section at the buttom of the page. >Fix: I see two possible solutions for this problem: 1. Install the examples into the share/doc directory, and put a README file into the standard examples directory (or maybe symlinks). 2. Leave the examples in the standard examples directory and fix the broken HTML-links with appropriate symbolic links. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
