running the documentation file of arydshln.sty requires
the dtx file, which is read by the arydshln-man.tex.
But this file cannot be found by tex, it is in the
source directory.
I know the problem, but that is simply the way TL has always been
arranged (since long before I was involved) -- the dtx/ins have always
been put in the source/ subtree.
However, I'm not sure if it really gains anything to have the dtx/ins
under source; perhaps it would be better for them to be in the
doc/package directory, which would keep everything together. I've
thought about that, but it's quite a big change, so I procrastinate ...
I'd rather not treat arydshln differently than every other package in
this regard. I expect there are plenty of other packages with a similar
setup.
Why were you rerunning the doc, anyway? (Just wondering.)
