Is this ok [y/N]:


I think this is wrong. Instead of requiring xfce4-doc, these packages should
simply fail gracefully when help or doc files they try to display are not
found.

Comment 1 Christoph Wickert 2011-07-14 09:02:29 UTC
I outlined the reasons in bug 721291.

Comment 2 Kevin Fenzi 2011-07-23 20:23:53 UTC
Lets move these over to 721291. We can act on them all from there if needed.
