Package: lynx
Version: 2.8.9dev16-1
Severity: normal

on accessing help going to link
"Lynx Users Guide — complete account of all Lynx features"

"
Main configuration file lynx.cfg

    Lynx has several levels of customization: from the Options Menu 
(accessible on-line, and possibly stored in your local .lynxrc file), 
via command-line switches on startup (mainly for batch processing). The 
most important and
    numerous default settings are stored in the Lynx configuration file 
lynx.cfg.

    If you are on a UNIX system you should have appropriate permissions 
to make changes there or ask your system administrator to modify 
lynx.cfg for your needs. This file provides default settings for all 
accounts on your system. It
    may be copied to your shell account and included with -cfg command 
line switch or via an environment variable LYNX_CFG (if you have shell 
access). Starting with version 2.8.1 Lynx has an include facility so you 
can load the
    system-wide configuration file and easily add one or more settings 
from your local add-on configuration file. It is really cool to read 
lynx.cfg with its comments for hundreds of options, most of them 
commented out because they
    are built-in defaults. You may visit an index of options: by 
category or by alphabet.
"

there is a link  "by category" and "by alphabet" ,

when clicking on "by category", an error shows up,

"The requested URL /release/breakout/lynx_help/cattoc.html was not found 
on this server."
