Thanks Don and Shaun for your replies. :) My issues with yelp are rather with its backends. I haven't submitted a bug report because I'm not sure it's a bug with yelp directly. Maybe you can enlighten me about it.
1. Trying to use firefox/iceweasel as backend, I can't compile it because libgtkembedmoz.so is missing. I think it was there in earlier firefox/iceweasel versions, but not anymore it seems. 2. It does compile against xulrunner, but it then segfaults everytime I try to access a docbook document. Probably a xulrunner problem because it used to work fine with older xulrunner versions. I'm now trying with xulrunner 1.8.1.14pre and 1.9.0.2pre. 3. There is a libgtkembedmoz.so in thunderbird/icedove, and I can force yelp to use that when compiling, but it crashes everytime I'm trying to launch yelp. I know, it's not supported, but I had to try. 4. There is a libgtkembedmoz.so in seamonkey, but I don't want to make seamonkey a dependency for yelp, so it's not an option for me and I haven't even tried. Thanks for any advice, George 2008/8/6 Don Scorgie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > On Tue, 2008-08-05 at 18:36 +0300, George Vlahavas wrote: > > Well... are there any drop-in replacements for yelp?
