This is working fine for me, with the same package versions and even
the same locale that you report, so there must be more to it than that -
perhaps some configuration or system difference that is making this work
for me but not for you.

Over in Ubuntu, Jeremy sees this problem but Sebastien Bacher does not,
so again there's probably some system configuration difference that
triggers this.

If you run devhelp from a terminal (gnome-terminal or xterm or equivalent)
and click on one of the manuals, what messages does it produce?

Is anything logged in the systemd journal when this happens?
