Layout Container CSS - bad sample code?

Question

I was looking at the documentation here: Configuring Layout Container and Layout Mode

There is sample code under "Include the Responsive CSS", which includes the line:

@import (once) "/etc/clientlibs/wcm/foundation/grid/grid_base.less";

The file mentioned doesn't exist on my server. (I have 6.4.2.0 installed). I do have a file named grid_base.less at the path "/libs/wcm/foundation/clientlibs/grid/grid_base.less" and that seems to work. Is this just an old sample that needs to be updated?

It caused me a fair bit of grief - you have to notice that the .less compiler is issuing a warning.

See the Weekend tutorial for this information - it's the best docs we have for this part of the AEM product:Getting Started with AEM Sites - WKND TutorialSee section 3.

That does look like a good tutorial. It verifies that the 6.4 documentation I referenced is inaccurate. Unfortunately, the quality of the tutorial doesn't make the documentation accurate.

My question wasn't, "Is there a tutorial that is more accurate than the documentation?". What I wanted to know was had I missed something - did I just not understand. I get that there is a whole heap of documentation and that things change fast and some things are going to slip through the gaps. Mistakes happen. No worries.

But is it going to be fixed?
