Internal links in a document do not work

Thanks for the report. This is a yelp bug, rather than ubuntu-docs - those links appear to be being created automatically, they are not a part of the text of the document.

Confirming and moving to yelp package.

I wonder if this is related to bug 138770?

Could you describe easy steps to trigger the bug?

Open Yelp 2.19.9

'Adding and Removing Software > Installing a single package file' scroll down a bit and you'll see a list of the types of files that seciton of the guide covers. Click on any link and it will take you back to the top instead of to the relevant section.

file://usr/share/gnome/help/add-applications/C/add-applications.xml#install-deb

The links all point to #install-deb, so I'm changing this back to an ubuntu-docs bug.

This issue happens for all internal links in all documentation - the link always goes to the top of the page rather than the relevant section. See duplicate bug for more examples.

This is definitely a yelp bug, but if I read the release notes right it is fixed in 2.20.

closing if that's fixed with GNOME 2.20 which is in gutsy, feel free to reopen if you still get the issue though

release in Gutsy is still 2.19.90-0ubuntu3. Marking 'Fix committed' until it actually shows up.

I don't have the ability to change this bug report's settings in Launchpad, but this bug is filed against a very old version of yelp, and this version is currently unsupported.

It was previously-marked fixed-released, and I think it should be re-closed.

Please close this bug, as the upstream report has been marked obsolete. Thanks very much!
