I looks like you were trying to attach an inline patch, but I can not
see it other than the header. Please try to make it as a new
attachment.

This issue is related to https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-doc/issues/170

> I created a patch to decrease this duplication for the Debian packaging.

> "mother" to the respective /share/doc/kicad/help/$LANG/images/ folder. The
> files for $LANG than should be placed in
> /share/doc/kicad/help/$LANG/images/$LANG like already done now. By this every
> single language is in itself some kind of closed and has no other dependencies.
> On the other hand all $LANG packages can be symlinked to
> /share/doc/kicad/help/en/images and the data can be de-duplicated by this. But
> this would need to change every language.

> The commit message is mentioning also another possibility. Place every time all
> images in and only in /share/doc/kicad/help/$LANG/images/ folder.
