Chris,
The local help doesn't work with that release in Linux, just go to the
website https://gnucash.org/ or maybe try searching your hard drive
manually. I have never tried that myself, so I don't know if that works.

I'm running GnuCash 4.8 on [x]Ubuntu 22.04.2, I have gnucash-docs
installed as well as the gnucash and gnucash-common packages but when
I click on things in the Help menu I just get "Document not found".
So, how do I get the help to work?
I seem to recall reading in these lists that it's a matter of Linux putting
the documents in a different place than where GnuCash is looking... I'm
assuming that there is a way to fix this with a symbolic link (or links),
but I don't recall the locations offhand.
GnuCash is using Gnome's help browser Yelp under Linux.
1. yelp changed its protocoll from ghelp:DOCUMENT which was stored below
/usr[/local]/share/gnome/help/DOCUMENT/LANG/,
to help:DOCUMENT below /usr[/local]/share/help/LANG/DOCUMENT/
2. After we realized that we adjusted gnucash's call of yelp.
3. Later we renamed gnucash-help to gnucash-manual.
So search your /usr for a directory gnucash-guide.
You can always call
yelp PARh/TO/DOCUMENT
from a command line,
To use the abbreviating protocoll you have to check, if the docs are
stored where the protocoll, which your yelp version understands, expects
them.

Frank
