this would be the result of bad packaging. the help entry works when
you get E from us. Rememebr distributions - nearly all, have a bad
habit of taking e and "destryoing it" - reducing functionality,
removing bits and resulting in it not working as intended by the
authors. in the case of debian i think they made the help docs a
separate package that does not get installed with enlightenment as a
requires - it's optional - and IMHO that is just plain wrong.
