Description Willy Nolan 2017-11-07 06:06:29 UTC

When I go to Help -> KDevelop handbook, I just get a popup that says "Document Not Found". The URI help://kdevelop does not point to a valid page.

Furthermore, it says that the shortcut for the help is "F1" but pressing "F1" just opens an "Ambiguous Shortcut detected" error window.

Please read
https://docs.kde.org/trunk4/en/kde-runtime/documentationnotfound/index.html

Your distribution?
Is KHelpcenter installed?
Provide the output of running "locate kdevelop/index.docbook" in a konsole
KDevelop 5.1.2 is kf5 based, but there is no gui message "Document Not Found" in kf5, please report the exact error message

That link results in a 404 Not Found result.

To answer your questions:
I am using Ubuntu 17.10

I installed Khelpcenter and get a more informative answer now.  I would close this as a bug.

And by that I mean.  For some reason "khelpcenter" did not load correctly the first time I tried to open the Kdevelop handbook. 

Now, for whatever reason, khelpcenter actually opens and explains what is going on, so this bug can be closed, at least as I see it.
