I hadn't done the OMF file properly, thanks for the hint. However now I
do have an omf file but the problem still occurs. It still says it's
looking for the file mentioned above, but my docs are now in

/usr/share/gnofract4d/doc/gnofract4d-manual/C/gnofract4d-manual.xml

They're still displayed correctly, though.

Maybe that's the problem - I have yelp 1.0.2 as distributed in RedHat
8.0 (This is a basically vanilla RH8.0 system.)

Yelp is installed and the file you mention does exist on my system. Yelp
seems to be searching in the wrong location.
