It's late here. Perhaps you have the same. I'll investigate tomorrow. It appears to be in the same location.

There may be a stale symlink

ls -al /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/sage-9999/work/build_doc/html/en/website/_static/CONTRIBUTING.md
lrwxrwxrwx 1 portage portage 35 Nov 11 22:31 /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/sage-9999/work/build_doc/html/en/website/_static/CONTRIBUTING.md -> ../../../../mathjax/CONTRIBUTING.md

doesn't exist.

No, I haven't tested building the pdf documentation so I hadn't seen that yet. I have been doing quite a lot of re-org of the installation of the documentation. I am anticipating the day where the doc can be built with either python-2 or 3, when that happens there will be some refactoring. I wanted to be in the best and most "economical" situation for when that happens.

So it looks like in my current design replacing mathjax content by links is done too early. At this stage of the build the links are broken because they are relative and will be correct once installed.

So I have some re-org to do. Almost the entire last commit of my last re-org will have to be reverted.

[kiwifb]

That should fix it. Please test and report.

This now builds and installs.
