Attached is the handsome and now correct looking "about this document" page. So to summarize, I've described here a work-around for what apparently is an installation glitch. Use Synaptic (or probably any other apt/dpkg set of tools that you like) to remove and reinstall yelp, ubuntu-doc, ubuntu-desktop and gnome-user-guide, then reboot and the problem is solved. I wonder if there's a gentler solution like just reinstalling yelp or some such.
