Actually it tells me that that almost everthing went fine since I installed
htdig on my laptop. IIRC there was (still is?) a bug within a perl-script (a
typo, KDE 3.5.3) which is reliable for using htdig from within khelpcenter but
I corrected this due to some suggestions I found while googling.

And surprisingly there is no input field and a Search button. Strange...
