From within LFM, you should be able to open the readme files using the help (f1) menu. This fails for two reason. 1. The path is wrong or not set up correctly. LFM expects the files to live in /usr/share/doc/lfm. The actual path appends the version number to the directory (ie. /usr/share/doc/lfm-2.3) 2. The doc files are compressed with bz2. LFM isn't expecting this and won't try to decompress them on the fly. Related code seems to be in actions.py, def show_help(tab), line 867.

I was also trying to bump it to 3.1 but it fails to run with :S Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.6/lfm", line 23, in <module> from lfm.lfm import lfm_start File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/lfm.py", line 39, in <module> from ui import run_app File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/ui.py", line 10, in <module> from preferences import Config, load_colortheme, load_keys, History File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/preferences.py", line 10, in <module> from utils import get_lfm_data_file_contents, ConfigParserWithComments, get_public_actions File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/utils.py", line 496, in <module> from compress import get_compressed_file_engine, packagers_by_type, PackagerTAR File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/compress.py", line 83, in <module> class PackagerTBZ2(PackagerBase): File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/lfm/compress.py", line 88, in PackagerTBZ2 uncompress_prog = compress_prog = SYSPROGS['bzip2'] NameError: name 'SYSPROGS' is not defined
The newest version 3.1 seems to install & load these docs from a new path that isnt affected by either of the aforementioned problems (versioned path or compression). I'm also unable to reproduce problem in comment #2 but feel free to open a new bug report on that if it still exists after bump to 3.1.
