[Bug 37933] Re: help broken in ubuntu

To clarify (or confuse things a little):
The problem arises because the help file is located at:
/usr/share/gnome/help/epiphany-browser/C/epiphany.xml

With the uri: "ghelp:epiphany", yelp looks under /usr/share/gnome/help/epiphany for the help files (which doesn't exist).  Looking up "ghelp:epiphany-browser" will also fail as no file exists with the name epiphany-browser.xml.

The bug can be triggered in Yelp by pressing ctrl-L and entering "ghelp:epiphany".  It does not affect the table of contents.

If the help file was:
/usr/share/gnome/help/epiphany/C/epiphany.xml
things would be ok.

If the help file was:
/usr/share/gnome/help/epiphany-browser/C/epiphany-browser.xml
things would be ok albeit, some links in other help files might need modified.  One example is in the gnome-accessibility guide in the section:
"Customizing the Appearance" -> "Customizing Specific Components of the Desktop"
but there could be others.  This way, the ghelp link would be modified to ghelp:epiphany-browser
