- - The structure of the ``doc`` directory is different. The PDF
- documentation is in the same place, but the files for the
- previous HTML documentation are no longer there. Instead, there
- are ``html`` and ``singlehtml`` directories, each of which

- if you are building your own packages and including
- documentation, please double check to make sure that you are
- including the right documentation files.
+ - Pre-built documentation is no longer distributed with the source
+ distribution. The AppImage and Windows binary distributions
+ still contain embedded documentation, and a separate ``doc``

+ starting with version 10.5. Please see :ref:`packaging-doc` for
