Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

I think it's bad to mix separate issues in a single report, as it makes
it difficult to track which of them had been resolved.

As for the paths - I am not surprised it is broken now, as pydoc hasn't
been updated ever since the documentation had been switched to rst (AFAICT).

As for uncompressing the documentation at installation time - I think
this is a bad idea. Instead, pydoc should properly open the chm file so
that it navigates to the right position directly. If you uncompresses,
it more-than-doubles the space, and you need to deal with removing the
files at uninstallation time.
