Bug Description

Binary package hint: yelp

If I run yelp or gnome-help from the command line, the Ubuntu Help Center spawns as normal. If I spawn it via hitting F1 or clicking the Help button in various GNOME applications, the Ubuntu Help Center just keeps spawning ad infinitum. The only way to save the system before it eventually runs out of resources is by killing it from a virtual console.

I'm running Maverick / amd64.

Please let me know what further details I can provide.
