ExtensionError link to non-exists URL
Metadata
Current evaluation
ExtensionError doc link pointed to a non-existent snapcraft.io URL and docstrings referenced snapcraft.yaml instead of rockcraft.yaml; the code has since been refactored to use doc_slug with rockcraft docs base URLs, so the original problem appears resolved but the issue was never closed.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue (filed by maintainer syu-w) reported that ExtensionError linked to a non-existent snapcraft.io URL and docstrings said 'snapcraft.yaml' instead of 'rockcraft.yaml'. The code has since been substantially refactored: extension.py now uses doc_slug='/reference/extensions/' (resolved against rockcraft docs base URL via craft-cli), and the error-message wording was updated in #1042. The original broken URL no longer exists in the codebase, so the issue is no longer applicable, though it was never explicitly closed.
