Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: yelp
"Help and Support" closes immediately after displaying a blank window.
When yelp is started from a terminal command line, it also closes with
error, "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". Yelp does not crash when
selecting System > "About Ubuntu," but selecting the Home icon to
display the system documentation menu also reliably crashes yelp. I.e.,
yelp only displays Ubuntu distribution information without crashing.
Reproducible 100%, Ubuntu 7.10, updates fully current.
gdb or valgrind cannot get any information, but have created strace-
yelp.log and xsession-error.txt
