Yelp has no content
Hi
this has plagued me for a little while.
i am running debian etch with gnome 2.12.3 and yelp version 2.12.2-2
i open yelp and it displays nothing except the background image with the
topics heading and the red life saver on the left.
it has been like this since i installed debian and gnome some time ago
now. have googled and searched numerous lists but i can't find anyone
with the same issue. i recently installed on another machine and i had
the same problem so i figured it can't just my specific setup (on the
first machine). i also have another machine where it works with no
problems.
running yelp from a terminal i get the following:
takisd@fitter:~> yelp
I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"/home/takisd/.gnome2/yelp-bookmarks.xbel"
(yelp:10337): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_stock_lookup: assertion `stock_id !=
NULL' failed
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0804b8a0 ***
I/O warning : failed to load external entity ""
on the external entity it refers to above, no that does not exist at the
path shown however it also doesn't exist on the machine where yelp works
fine so i don't know how relevant that is.
has anyone noticed such behaviour before - any ideas on how this can be
resolved? thanks.
Takis
