> Running audacity and then opening Help -> Manual doesn't work since, among 
> other things, it defaults to using the local help (non-internet) and can't find

> I'd suggest one of

> (2) default HelpMode to internet help (see 
> audacity-minsrc-2.1.2/src/widgets/HelpSystem.cpp HelpSystem::ShowHelpDialog)

> Audacity does provide an error dialog with a link where the user could download 
> the manual - but it doesn't work since xdg-open is not installed (see bug# 
> 22704).

> Bug #22704 is fixed, so while I get the notification box that tells me
> that the manual is not installed I can simply click on the link to open
> it in a browser.
>
> It also tells me to go to Preferences if I want to always open the
> manual in my browser, which works fine.
>
> The only way to include the manual is to download the wiki, and we can’t
> do that reproducibly, so we cannot make it a fixed output derivation.
> As it’s not feasible for us to include the manual, I’m closing this
