Docs missing?

The RPMs of documentation are currently not quite right - they don't
contain any of the Haddock-generated docs or the index.html that ties it
all together. We know about the problem, but no-one has had the time
(or in my case, the RPM-savvyness) to fix it yet.

Yes, that's the right way to do it. The docs are now set up so that
when installed properly you should get an index.html in
$(datadir)/ghc-5.04/html which points to the rest of the HTML docs.

Hmm, that's rather unfortunate. I think we might have to include some
more conditional bits in index.html.in so that the links point to the
right place in the case when the DocBook output ends up in book1.html
instead of users_guide.html.

No problem.
