We're aware of it - for some reason Ubuntu and Debian's installation
scripts are not listening to our installation instructions. Everything
is unix/resources/doc is supposed to end up in
/usr/share/doc/librecad/doc - but it's still empty. So then we tried
installing everything from support/doc as well (since the files are
generated in that folder), but it still didn't copy over the qhc and
qch files but did copy over all the html files that you see. We worked
on it a bit this weekend and haven't found out why it's happening.
Lisandro is currently working on it.
