Package: khelpcenter Version: 4:3.5.4-2 Severity: important The components of Khelpcenter's search facility are all either broken or incomplete.
Users cannot search numerous categories of documentation that can nevertheless be browsed, including (perhaps most importantly) Info pages, the KDE Users' Manual, KDE FAQ. Maybe this should be a separate 'wishlist' report, but it seems to me not much 'help' and thus more than a mere wishlist item to omit Info pages. Khelpcenter claims it will search man pages and application manuals, but many simple searches in both areas fail. For example, man page searches for "make" and "sed" yield no results, and Application Manual searches for "kdvi," "dvi," "kgamma," and "gamma" all yield no results, even though manuals for KDvi and KGamma exist and are browsable in KHelpcenter. (Yes, I've built the index with htdig; the index status is reported "OK.") Some searches in these categories do work, e.g., "sudoku" finds the "KSudoku" manual and other relevant documents, and "adduser" finds two appropriate man pages. Also, ironically, a search for "kdvi" in the Man Pages index finds the kdvi man page. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-8-corax-1 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages khelpcenter depends on: ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.4-3 core libraries and binaries for al ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-11 GCC support library ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.6-2 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-11 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 khelpcenter recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
