Package: wx2.8-doc
Version: 2.8.10.1-3.1
Severity: normal

I tried to open the wx manual in a wxHtmlHelpController with the bit of
wxperl below, but it gave an error dialog

    Cannot open contents file: 

(no message after the colon).

Is the wx.hhp usable by the help system when gzipped?  I got some joy
from uncompressing it plus wx.hhc.gz and wx.hhk.gz.  Could they be
provided uncompressed in the package so they can be used?

I see the help controller thing might accept a .zip file, dunno if
that's better than .gz format.

use strict;
use Wx;
use Wx::Help;
use Wx::Html;

my $app = Wx::SimpleApp->new;
my $hc = Wx::HtmlHelpController->new
  (Wx::wxHF_FLATTOOLBAR() |  Wx::wxHF_DEFAULTSTYLE());

$hc->AddBook('/usr/share/doc/wx2.8-doc/wx-manual.html/wx.hhp.gz',0);

$hc->DisplayContents;
$app->MainLoop;
exit 0;

thanks

Since upstream have removed wx.hhp in the next release series (as noted
at http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13564 ), and that's fairly imminent,
this doesn't seem worth fixing at this point.  

If you're still keen to work on this despite this, I'd be OK with
applying a clean patch.

Cheers,
    Olly
