GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 780699
Online help system broken from program, does not go to proper URL when asking for online help
Last modified: 2018-05-24 10:42:31 UTC
When requesting online help goes to: https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en_US/index.html and you get a 404. It should go to https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/ Also, you should provide a way to at least correct this error within preferences. I tried to install the localized help file using OSX sierra but I am not a software developer and that process failed miserably.
Interesting. I guess we could catch this at the server level for the online docs, and have it map e.g. https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/tlh/ to https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/. This won't work for locally installed docs, however, so I would prefer a solution that takes care of this in the help plug-in as well.
