Topic

An updated epydoc package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Epydoc is a tool for generating API documentation for Python modules, based on
their docstrings. A lightweight markup language called epytext can be used to
format docstrings, and to add information about specific fields, such as
parameters and instance variables. Epydoc also understands docstrings written in
ReStructuredText, Javadoc and plaintext.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the summary extractor of reStructuredText did not work properly

and the documentation process failed. Due to this behavior, building packages
could fail. This update resolves this problem. Packages now build successfully.
(BZ#657567)

All users of epydoc are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259
