Bug Description

Guilt does not find its help.

Solution is simple. In the guilt-help bash script, see the third line from the end. It should read:

MANDIR=`dirname $0`/../share/man

instead of:

MANDIR=`dirname $0`/../man

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

As mentioned in the Debian report, this issue was resolved a while back. I've verified with guilt 0.35-1.2ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 14.04 and later versions, and `guilt help` works as expected now. I'm thus marking this Fix Released. :)
