I've recently upgrade to the Gnome 2 backport for Woody, and I have
to admit that I'm not quite sure what to think of it yet.  For

However, I can not for the life of me find out who I am supposed to
read it.  According to dpkg -S and locate, the manual seems to
exists as a bunch of xml files in /usr/share/gnome/help.  However, I
can not find program that will let me view this in human-readable
form.  This seems rather peculiar, so I strongly suspect that
something is wrong...

'yelp'--the Help Browser for Gnome 2.0--seems to be the way to get
that info in a more user-friendly manner ;-)

Mine is in Menu Panel > Applications > Help

That's pretty much the first place that I looked.  Unfortunately, it's
not there.  I have not made a proper attempt to count all the entries
that appear in the help browser, but it does look rather
undepopulated.

I found the Gnome 2 backport to Woody a bit underpopulated, in general. And a few things just plain didn't work . . .

. . . how can I say it well? "The most complete simulation of the Universe is the Universe itself."

I have made another partition, installed 30r1, and updated to unstable ;-)

Maybe someone else has a better solution.
