Description Adam Dingle 2006-10-04 21:54:05 UTC
Please describe the problem:
The [Help / Users manual] and [Help / Frequently asked questions] commands fail with an error message like the following:

Could not load document
The file '///usr/local/share/gnome/help/anjuta/C/anjuta-manual.xml' could not be parsed.  Either the file does not exist, or it is not well-formed XML.

It appears that the problem is that 'make install' is installing the help files with permissions which don't let ordinary users read these files:

adamd@adamd-linux:/usr/local/share/gnome/help/anjuta/C$ ls -l
total 172
-rw-r----- 1 root root 21138 Oct  4 11:29 anjuta-faqs.xml
-rw-r----- 1 root root  3178 Oct  4 11:29 anjuta-manual.xml
...
