Package: yelp
Version: 2.6.4-1
Severity: normal

the yelp (1) man page provides a little information
(very little, but that's not my point), and then
says "see also gnome-help(1)".

You know where that leads.

"See also" should, in my opinion, point to additional
information, not another version of the same information.

Thanks.
