The file /usr/doc/HOWTO/other-formats/html/HOWTO-INDEX.html links to sunsite.unc.edu instead of the local files. This file is from the package howto-html-5.2-2.
I have observed this to be true. I am assigning it to a developer for fixing.
I just found this bug this morning, and it's a simple matter of removing the second to the top line of the file, this one: <BASE HREF="http://sunsite.unc.edu/Linux/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX.html">
Bill, weren't you messing with this? :)
no, but it's fixed in howto-6.0-3
