Description Tim Lee 2006-03-13 22:43:15 UTC 
In the help browser under the Office, Flowchart section I clicked on
the Dia link and I got the following error:

Could not load document

The file ‘/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/dia.xml’ could not be parsed. Either the file does not exist, or it is not well-formed XML

The file does exist and is an XML file.
Comment 1 JP Rosevear 2006-03-17 18:18:21 UTC 
This seems to be that dia does not install all the help files it should it should.
Comment 2 Hans Petter Jansson 2006-03-18 07:49:49 UTC 
Yeah, I get:

I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/intro.xml"
/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/dia.xml:117: parser error : Failure to process entity INTRODUCTION
&INTRODUCTION;
              ^
/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/dia.xml:117: parser error : Entity 'INTRODUCTION' not defined
&INTRODUCTION;
              ^
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/usage-quickstart.xml"
/opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/en/dia.xml:119: parser error : Failure to process entity QUICKSTART
&QUICKSTART;

I'll have to fix this in the Dia package proper.

Still broken in production SUSE 10.0 Linux:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Could not open help directory:
Error opening directory '/opt/gnome/share/dia/help': No such file or directoryCould not open help directory:
Error opening directory '/opt/gnome/share/dia/help': No such file or directory

The proper path seems to be /opt/gnome/share/gnome/help/dia/
Comment 7 JP Rosevear 2007-10-10 14:47:14 UTC 
Don't get the error on 10.3 but help still does not open.  Too minor for SLED 10 update, but will fix in oS 11.0.

Fix the quotation marks in "en"

Patch from upstream SVN to fix the English help file so that the XML help file will parse correctly.
Comment 10 Boyd Timothy 2007-10-31 22:50:03 UTC 
The last two patches have been applied to STABLE in abuild.
