[GNC] "Help"

Hi Folks,
On my Fedora system I installed the gnucash-docs package: "yum install gnucash-docs", and that did exactly what you'd expect. When I tried to read any of them, I got nothing. The reason is my system was configured to use the "KDE Help Center" application, which didn't understand DocBooks, among other things. I needed to use the GNOME Help Center, "Yelp", which understands DocBooks. That works.
There is one more trick. It is worthwhile, at least for GnuCash to make that the default. "xdg-mime default yelp.desktop x-scheme-handler/help". I suppose it might be worthwhile to produce "gnucash-kde-docs" and "gnucash-gnome-docs", unless somebody smarter than I am know how how to do both with one installation. I think it is just a matter of rendering the DocBooks into something KDE understands and updating the gnucash.desktop.
Problem solved. Thanks for the help,
Chris.
