Whoops, I found a couple bugs in the Remix export functionality.
When doing a remix from the FM site, it downloads the images for the
activity *mostly* correct. There are two problems however:
1.) I've had a few images that didn't download, the image in this chapter:
http://en.flossmanuals.net/XO/AboutOLPC
isn't in my export. I haven't quite figured out if I'm missing more images
or which images *aren't* downloaded correctly.
2.) The HTML (and this may be bjordan's parsing and not FM's export
function) continues to link to the image stored on FM's site as on the
site. So for instance my downloaded copy still pulled images from:
http://en.flossmanuals.net/floss/publish/XO/rsrc/XO_for_kids/Feet_and_smile_1_1.jpg
which means that the exported version doesn't work unless I'm online.
In resolution to #2 a simple script can change those to local urls:
#!/bin/bash
>
> for file in *; do
>
> mv $file $file.old
>
> sed 's,http://en.flossmanuals.net/floss/pub/,./,g' $file.old > $file
>
> rm -f $file.old
>
> done
>
As for #1, I'll just update the images I need by hand.
BTW, thank you mikus for finding bug #2 last night and reporting it
promptly: http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8558
