Description Christopher Yeleighton 2011-02-19 12:29:42 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes KDE documentation mentions lower-level components like info or gcc that do not belong to kde and their documentation is provided either as info or as troff.  These catch words are singled out by a different styling that resembles a reference.  Le KHelpCenter dereference them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
  1. { xdg-open help:/kioslave/info/index.html; }

Actual Results:  
  1. … can be read on the command line with the info program

Expected Results:  
  1. … can be read on the command line with the info program [1]

[1] <URL: info:/info >

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34.7-0.7-desktop
Compiler: gcc

But the bug is not resolved?
Comment 3 Burkhard Lück 2011-07-21 04:55:48 UTC
xdg-open help:/kioslave/info/index.html; in master and following the info link info:/info I get an error message:
KDE Info Pages Viewer Error
 No info page for topic "info" found.
 You may find what you are looking for at the info manpage.

link info:/ or info:/dir works, but I have to switch manually to utf-8 encoding.

Can someone else check and confirm please?
Comment 4 Yuri Chornoivan 2011-07-21 05:08:49 UTC
Confirmed. ;)
Comment 5 Christopher Yeleighton 2011-07-21 09:03:50 UTC
Perhaps you do not have info for info installed on your system?
Comment 6 Yuri Chornoivan 2011-07-21 09:08:39 UTC
Nope. "info:/info" in Konqueror works.

You are right.
But honestly I'd never expect the the package with info infofile only as suggested from the info browser package; and then in a package labelled texinfo-doc-nonfree on debian based systems.

Thanks for the hint
