964849 - |min-perl-ver| and similar variables are not replaced in RTD documentation

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Documentation, defect)

Description

[:glob ✱]

|min-perl-ver| isn't replaced in RTD documentation.

eg.  "Running Bugzilla on Windows requires the use of ActiveState Perl |min-perl-ver| or higher."

This is because RTD does not, of course, run makedocs.pl.

We will have to figure out another way of generating a dynamic rst_epilog if we want the docs to continue to specify minimum module versions extracted from the source.

I will ponder.

As agreed on the mailing list, remove dynamic insertion of minimum module versions. Also, clean up some module-related text and markup.
