If I launch the clipboard widget (klipper), click "Configure Clipboard," and then click the "Help" button, I get the dreaded "Documentation not Found" page I wrote in 2014. (I just discovered this because someone sent me a message because my email address is on that page as the author.) He's on Suse Tumbleweed, and I'm on Gentoo, so I don't think it's a packaging problem.

However, if I open khelpcenter and search for klipper (how is someone to know that "klipper" is the name of the "clipboard" widget?) the documentation is present.

So, I'm wondering if Klipper is actually calling KHelpCenter with the wrong name for the doc it is looking for.

Separately, when that happens, there is no way to know what page KHelpCenter was asked to find. Would that be a useful enhancement to request? (Showing the name of the doc requested when it can't be found.)

I'll also probably try to update the "Documentation not Found" page to add a note not to contact the author of the page for help, as he will just tell you to follow the instructions on the page.
