man:[command] not working as expected

[Thibaut Brandscheid]

When opening yelp, clicking in the address bar and typing 'man:ls' the appropriate man page is not found → No matching help pages found in “Ubuntu Desktop Guide”.

When pressing CTRL+L and removing 'help:' at the beginning of the line and then entering 'man:ls' yelp works as expected.

I assume that Yelp hides by default the 'help:' url part as web browsers do. When entering after startup 'man:ls' it results in help:man:ls' and an error is shown to the user.
