Regarding Geometry, we're discussing it here:
https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/issues/585
The issue was introduced after I attempted to fix failures reported in
our regression testing due to lack of metadata for sublibraries:
https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/issues/575
To make things worse I also made a mistake and pushed extensions
directory which should be only in develop branch into master branch.
I already attempted to fix this by modifying the redirection in
index.html files of sublibs:
https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/commit/70994a3a320440d040925247d637480e5251334a
and I'm waiting for the develop and master versions of documentation to
update to see if it works, e.g.:
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/develop/#lib-geometry
Since we're on this subject. Is is possible to hide a sublib from being
displayed on this list? During the discussion about the issue (585) we
noticed that the script generating the documentation supports some kind
of hiding of libraries (see:
https://github.com/boostorg/website/blame/master/doc/libraries.json.php#L15-L21)
but we do not know if it's possible to hide specific sublibs and how to
do it.
