This issue exists on eric 4.3.7.1, which is the current version for karmic.

The problem appears to be due to the following line in line 4227 of /usr/share/eric/modules/UI/UserInterface.py:

home = '/usr/share/doc/python2.5-doc/html/index.html'

Clearly this is a hard-coded path, and it is overriding the value that the code earlier pulls from preferences. Commenting out this line fixed the problem for me.
