Description Jody Caldwell 2012-04-28 11:10:11 UTC 
From the Gnome (2.32.1) desktop, Clicking on 'help/contents' in any game or application does not work and results in the error message "Could not display help: The specified location is not supported"

When 'yelp' is invoked from the command line, it works OK.

Fix: 

The following fix was adapted from instructions found on a linux forum at:
http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=77196


apply the attached patch file as shown below:
How-To-Repeat: From the Gnome desktop click on Applications/Games/(any game).  When the game opens, click on 'help/contents'
