Package: yelp
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal
yelp will only open a file specified on the command line if it is an
absolute path. Trying to open a file with a relative path results in
some warnings and no window.
This works:
lakeview ok % yelp /usr/share/gnome/help/glchess/C/glchess.xml
This doesn't:
lakeview ok % cd /usr/share/gnome/help/glchess/C/
lakeview ok % yelp glchess.xml
