Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the K3b itself, and not with our K3b packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the K3b developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!

Actually, now there is a bug in our packages as of K3b 1.91.0. The help files were just introduced that release, and I neglected to put them in the install manifest. I have packages ready that fix this, and will upload them as soon as possible. (I'm not sure if it's appropriate to upload this during beta freeze)

I just reverted the upload. The docs aren't really in any shape for being used whatsoever. (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233220)

Version: 1.91.0 (using 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler: cc
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.32-19-generic-pae

As it stands in K3b 1.91.0, the docs shipped with K3b haven't been touched since K3b 1.x days. The screenshots are all for KDE3, and there's even an entire section on the DCOP interface. There's also grammatically ...unique... passages such as:

" In this dialog is nothing you can do. Just wait for you computer to finish the session."

At this point, I think that it'd be better to just skip the documentation for 2.0, as the current documentation contains a lot of useless, outdated information, outdated screenshots, and generally gives off an unprofessional vibe.

Not likely something that can be done now that we're past string freeze. Unmarking for lucid.

Hmm, I can't see how to do that with the launchpad ui, though. :/
Anyways, this is being tracked upstream.

A student offered to revamp the documentation. Since we're in string freeze since some time, we can't change it for 2.0.
However, it's likely that we'll just link to KDE UserBase in the future and delete the DocBook-based documentation altogether.
