docs contains minor mistakes regarding system wide installation using prefix = /usr/local/share

[ebauch]

When installing Jupyter kernels system-wide, the docs say to use the --prefix argument, where

However, when I use the prefix

--prefix = /usr/local/share as it is stated, the output path for the kernel spec is something like

"/usr/local/share/share/jupyter/kernels/...."

Removing "share" from the prefix argument solves the problem and the kernel spec is installed properly. So the full command that works for me is

python -m ipykernel install --prefix=/usr/local --name kernel_name --display-name "kernel_name" 

I suppose the docs should state the prefixes without "share".
