AbiWord's Help goes to Web even if abiword-help is installed

Hi There,

Can you check what version of abiword you're using as I've just tried using it, and the help file is loaded from disk in my web browser as file:///usr/share/AbiSuite-2.4/AbiWord/help/en-US/index.html

This is using version 2.4.5. Can you check your version number please?

Yes, AbiWord is version 2.4.5. (The abiword-gnome and abiword-help package versions are both 2.4.5-0ubuntu2.)

I've just installed abiword-gnome and abiword-help on edgy to test this and my help brings up the same as Paul Campbell. My package versions are the same as yours but I am not getting the same problem as you. Have you had the help working properly on a previous version or is this the first version you have installed?

Is this still a problem for you?

Yes, it is still a problem with abiword-gnome 2.4.6-1.1ubuntu2 and abiword-help 2.4.6-1.1ubuntu2 on Ubuntu 7.04.

This bug was fixed in the package abiword - 2.6.6-0ubuntu1
