The Help or handbook files are missing. The help system referrs to a kde page that DOES have the help, so as work around I can make link to that. Since most users dont RTFM I guess this not big deal, just to make aware of this. I spent an evening poking around to no avail. I am using mint12/kde/plasma Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start k3b 2.click help 3.click k3b handbook Actual Results: "documentation not found" in comprehenhive kde help center Expected Results: help contents
That sounds more like a downstream packaging issue. Have you contacted Mint guys for help before creating this upstream report ?
Waiting for answer...

Created attachment 115228 [details] K3b 18.08.1 on Arch Linux "File not found..." with K3b 18.08.1 on Arch Linux when I press F1 or click "Help" menu > "K3b handbook" to open the handbook.
Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS K3b Version 17.12.3 KDE Frameworks 5.47.0 Qt 5.9.5 (kompiliert gegen 5.9.5) Das xcb Fenstersystem F1 or Help->K3b Handbook opens khelpcenter with the k3b docbook VM with up to date neon-devedition-gitunstable K3b Version 18.11.70 KDE Frameworks 5.51.0 Qt 5.11.1 (build against 5.11.1) The xcb windowing system F1 or Help->K3b Handbook opens khelpcenter with the k3b docbook The tarball k3b-18.08.1.tar.xz from download.kde.org has a lot of docbooks in many languages So I suspect there is something wrong with your distro Arch Linux
Tested just now on Manjaro successfully as well. Closing this as Downstream.
