Thank you for your bug. Ubuntu doesn't use /usr/local, that's something you built yourself out of the distribution system, not a bug

Changed in devhelp:
assignee: nobody → desktop-bugs
importance: Undecided → Low
status: Unconfirmed → Rejected

Thank you for your reply!

Before, I had a self compiled version of devhelp on edgy. Then I did an dist-upgrade. I'm now on feisty and I also reinstalled devhelp via apt from the regular feisty repository!
Now I've got the message mentioned above.

Shouldn't the old version of devhelp be overwritten while the dist-upgrade?
