Offline version of the Lubuntu Manual

The goal of this task was to fully automate the creation of the manual as pdf file with Docker and Jenkins. I guess, the Jenkins instance at ci.lubuntu.me isn’t running anymore.

It is still possible to create a PDF file, following (more or less) the steps:

mkdir lubuntu
cd lubuntu
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends python3-pip python3-sphinx latexmk texlive texlive-formats-extra build-essential python3-sphinx-rtd-theme python3-sphinx-bootstrap-theme
git clone 'https://phab.lubuntu.me/source/manual.git' # not sure if this is the current git repository
cd manual
make latexpdf

The created pdf can be found in the “build/latex” directory.

I did it this morning on a 23.04 vm but I am not allowed to upload pdf files in this forum.
