Submenus break on (stock) Jinja themes

[tritium21]

Steps to show submenus work with mako themes:

nikola init foo
cd foo
vim conf.py and change:

NAVIGATION_LINKS = {
    DEFAULT_LANG: (
        ("/archive.html", "Archive"),
        ("/categories/index.html", "Tags"),
        ("/rss.xml", "RSS feed"),
        (
            (('http://www.example.org/', 'Example'), ),
            'Menu'
        )
    ),
}

nikola build

This should work just fine.

nikola install_theme bootstrap3-jinja
vim conf.py and change THEME='bootstrap3-jinja'
nikola build

this should give a nice little traceback:

I assume that the jinja version of the template does not even attempt to render submenus where the mako one does.

The Jinja versions are usually autogenerated from the Mako versions. This needs investigating.

Here’s the deal:

--- mako ---
[2014-06-12T14:51:14Z] WARNING: Nikola: rel_link with /index.html and http://www.example.org/

--- jinja ---
[2014-06-12T14:51:31Z] WARNING: Nikola: rel_link with /galleries/index.html and ((u'http://www.example.org/', u'Example'),)

Fix should be out in a while.
