[Bug 312900] [NEW] dhelp indexes only /usr/share/doc; not info or man pages

[Bruce Miller]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dhelp

I am running Kubuntu 8.10 64-bit:

~$ uname -a
Linux Xenophon 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
bruce at Xenophon:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
Release:        8.10

When I last ran dhelp, it was several years ago and under Libranet. The
package had apache as a dependency. All info and man pages were indexed.

Invoking the version of dhelp in Intrepid without a web server brings up error messages stating that neither info files nor manpages are available. Installing lighttpd as a web server makes info files available but manpages remain unavailable:
The requested URL /cgi-bin/man/man2html was not found on this server.
