Public bug reported:
For Ubuntu 17.04 and earlier, we patched several (but not all) GNOME
apps to show help:ubuntu-help when run in Unity but still show help
:gnome-help when run in GNOME.
That won't work anymore with 17.10.
Test Case
---------
You can see this by installing gnome-shell then logging into GNOME. (It's
probably easiest to choose lightdm if asked unless you install
ubuntu-gnome-desktop because of LP: #1686257 )
Open the Help app. It should display either Ubuntu's Help or GNOME's
Help but it instead loads the All Help page because it can't find help
:gnome-help.
Easy Suggested Fix
------------------
bzr mv ubuntu-help gnome-help
Be sure to set Conflicts: gnome-user-guide
Then we probably need to change all the places that point to help
:ubuntu-help to point to help:gnome-help unless someone really wants to
maintain a Unity Help Guide.
Alternate Suggested Fix
-----------------------
We could just install gnome-user-guide instead of ubuntu-docs.
Depending on how much customization is wanted, you could fork gnome-
user-guide later.
And update help:ubuntu-help links to help:gnome-help like in the
previous fix.
Later
----
I think we'll eventually want a transitional package once we figure out what
package name we're going to stick with.
