User Notes: Installation of Yelp Install Yelp by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && update-desktop-database Command Explanations update-desktop-database: This ensures that /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache will be updated and therefore the help in gnome applications will work. Some packages run this command during their installation, but yelp and the gnome applications do not.
