After doing a dist upgrade to unstable, my Abiword is now at 0.9.4.
What an improvement. I'm able to open all sorts of MS .doc
docs.(unfortunately my friends don't have any desire to use a free
alternative to MS Word).
The bug I found is that the documentation, The User Manual, is put
in /usr/share/doc/abiword/help, and Abiword looks for it in
/usr/share/Abisuite/Abiword/help. I simply linked the one help directory to
the other
cd /usr/share/Abisuite/Abiword
ln -s /usr/share/doc/abiword/help
Is this a Debian specific bug? Does anyone run Abiword on another
distro that could let me know? If it is multiple distros, I'll send a bug
report to abisource.com, otherwise, I'll let the .deb maintainer for this
package know about it.

p.s. This is one damn good word processor.
