Description
Both the trunk and the 0.7 versions of the RST manual contain inconsistent (and partly wrong/misleading) information on how to set the right PYTHONPATH to use the rst modules from Python.
In the Preparation > Installing RST section there is a note saying that the site-packages folder of the install $prefix should be on the PYTHONPATH, the tutorial correctly tells us to put the .eggs themselves on the path (although the 0.7 tutorial incorrectly uses "0.8" in the example file names given).
Associated revisions
Describe installation and usage separately and only in one place
refs #1283
preparation.rst and user-tutorial.rst both used to describe setting up
PYTHONPATH. Also, the description in preparation.rst was wrong.
- install.rst: renamed preparation.rst -> install.rst; added link to
language-specific usage tutorials; removed usage instructions for
Python; removed sections "Preparation", "Testing the Installation"
and "Troubleshooting", these can become separate documents - user-tutorial.rst: added link targets for language-specific sections
- index.rst: changed include preparation.rst -> install.rst
- _templates/page.html: adapted to above changes
Corrected some instructions about how to set the PYTHONPATH. refs #1283
