Bug#970431: wxwidgets3.0: Links in documentation points to build path, not installed path

Package: wxwidgets3.0
Version: 3.0.5.1+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: buildpath
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org

Hi,

It looks like a number of internal references in the documentation point
to their build-time location. For example:

    For more information on socket events see <a class="el" href="/build/1st/wxwidgets3.0-3.0.5.1+dfsg/interface/wx/socket.h#wxSocketFlags">wxSocketFlags</a> . </li>

This is incorrect because it links to under /build/1st, or whatever
directory the package was built from. As this directory will not exist
when the package is installed, the links cannot resolve.

(The exact path in the Debian archive will differ from the above, but
the same problem will be there.)

This was found during reproducibility testing.


Regards,
