Description Bill Gjestvang 2003-07-16 15:46:18 UTC

The default lynx help file, set in /etc/lynx/lynx.cfg with the HELPFILE
directive, gets a page not found error and proceeds to a porn site.

Setting this to the local copy would fix the problem.  This should work:
HELPFILE:file://localhost/usr/share/doc/lynx-2.8.4.1c/lynx_help/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html

The current default is:
HELPFILE:http://www.trill-home.com/lynx/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Run lynx.
Type "?" or "h" for help.
If you're on the net, you should now be at the porn site.  Lucky it's a text
browser.
