This patch as well fixes the path to the generated PDF documentation
which was wrong because it misses the last 'training-guides' directory.

OpenStack Training Guides
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
This repository contains open source training manuals that can be
used to learn about the OpenStack project.
For more details, see the `OpenStack Training Guides wiki page
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Training-guides>`_.
It includes these guides:
* Associate Guide
* Operator Guide
* Developer Guide
Prerequisites
=============
`Apache Maven <http://maven.apache.org/>`_ must be installed to build the
documentation.
To install Maven 3 for Ubuntu 12.04 and later, and Debian wheezy and later::
apt-get install maven
On Fedora 20 and later::
yum install maven
Building
========
The different guides are in subdirectories of the
``doc/`` directory.
To build the guides, look for a ``pom.xml`` file within a subdirectory,
then run the ``mvn`` command in that directory. For example::
cd doc/training-guides/
mvn clean generate-sources
The generated PDF documentation file is::
doc/training-guides/target/docbkx/webhelp/training-guides/training-guides.pdf
The root of the generated HTML documentation is::
doc/training-guides/target/docbkx/webhelp/training-guides/content/index.html
Testing of changes and building of the manual
=============================================
Install the python tox package and run ``tox`` from the top-level
directory to use the same tests that are done as part of our Jenkins
gating jobs.
If you like to run individual tests, run:
* ``tox -e checkniceness`` - to run the niceness tests
* ``tox -e checksyntax`` - to run syntax checks
* ``tox -e checkdeletions`` - to check that no deleted files are referenced
* ``tox -e checkbuild`` - to actually build the manual
tox will use the openstack-doc-tools package for execution of these
tests.
