Hi,

Is susehelp still used/needed by KDE? Looks quite outdated and requires info2html which looks like a drop candidate to me.

I have used susehelp for decades, and I liked it, but it is broken now, has been broken for a long time. I have uninstalled and re-installed it to make sure I have fresh config files, but it doesn't work: cer@Telcontar:~> susehelp Use of uninitialized value $kdeversion in numeric eq (==) at /usr/bin/susehelp-khelpcenter line 7. Use of uninitialized value $kdeversion in numeric eq (==) at /usr/bin/susehelp-khelpcenter line 12. Use of uninitialized value $kdeversion in numeric eq (==) at /usr/bin/susehelp-khelpcenter line 17. Use of uninitialized value $kshell in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/bin/susehelp-khelpcenter line 24. Use of uninitialized value $khelpcenter in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/bin/susehelp-khelpcenter line 24. cer@Telcontar:~> I'm not using KDE, but XFCE. Originally, susehelp worked on all desktops and even in text mode. In text mode the error is: cer@Telcontar:~> susehelp Unable to find local doc server. If you want to use the doc server you have to set the variable DOC_SERVER in /etc/sysconfig/apache2 to 'yes' and start apache. cer@Telcontar:~> That variable is indeed set in my system since ever, does not work. Apache is running. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
