Bug#469400: yelp: 'Page not found' popups

Package: yelp
Version: 2.20.0-2
Severity: normal

When using yelp for displaying manpages, I sometimes get a popup saying "Page not 
found" and the following text added: "The requested page was not found in the 
document /usr/share/man/man1/test.1.gz.", even though the manual page appears to display 
okay. This happens with more than 50% of the manual pages.

This occurs mostly when running yelp from the command line. Try "yelp man:test" and 
the popup will occur (many other manual pages produce the same popup). "yelp 
man:less" does not produce a popup. When running yelp interactively, the popups are 
much less frequent.
