We use to have a good Help Centre that provided auto location of man pages as well as standard help together with the ability to create indexes. Our current default Presentation of a KDE desktop installs KDE help which provides for an alphabetical index but no indexes that are available with the actual full scope of the text. Without being able to generate indexes once your install is complete, the ability to search is vague at the best of time and there is no way of including all the documentation that gets installed under the Documentation Package Option at installation. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Its impossible to search documentation package following installation, nor man pages and no ability to create indexed information making the search for information most poor.Ca we please put back the help centre that permitted the autodiscovery of documentation and its index creation ability we once had. Not quite sure why we remove functionality from time to time but I think managing the packages that go into our packing list a most arduous task Expected Results: Its impossible to search documentation package following installation, nor man pages and no ability to create indexed information making the search for information most poor.Ca we please put back the help centre that permitted the autodiscovery of documentation and its index creation ability we once had.

As it stands help centre offers a user little if no benefit and the ability to find a solution to an operational function is not rationally an enhancement or nice to have. I have downgraded to version 12.3 which is also relevant here as the number of bugs reported and its stability I, for the first time in my profession; believe 13.1 should be expunged -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
