Ok, so I managed to get rid of the problem. For me the issue was caused by one
of the company-frontends (probably interacting with some other component of my
setup). I used to have these:
(setq company-frontends
'(company-pseudo-tooltip-unless-just-one-frontend
company-preview-frontend
company-echo-metadata-frontend))
I replaced them for this:
(setq company-frontends '(company-pseudo-tooltip-frontend
company-echo-metadata-frontend))
And now things are working fine. The help file only gets open if I press F1
(and not automatically after a few seconds).
Of course, I do not undertand *why* things got fixed. But I can live with
that. :)
Cheers,
Julian
