Comment 1 Michael Schumacher 2013-06-20 11:48:59 UTC 
The help is not included in the GIMP package, and packaging for a specific distro is handled by the distros themselves. What do you want us to do?
Comment 2 André Klapper 2013-06-20 20:29:31 UTC 
Why was this upstreamed from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp-help/+bug/1183431 ???
Comment 3 Alberto Salvia Novella 2013-06-20 20:59:58 UTC 
I think this bug has been reported upstream by mistake.
