[arch-general] Lynx package lacks documentation
Is it intentional the decision to not include in lynx package the program documentation, despite it being available from upstream sources? Upstream seems to prefer if users set HELPFILE in lynx.cfg to a local path, as can be seen from this quote (lynx.cfg): "The default HELPFILE is: http://lynx.isc.org/release/lynx2-8-6/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html This should be changed to the localpath." However this isn't currently possible without further action from the user after installing the package. Also of note the fact that an upstream update will render the default URI in HELPFILE invalid and turn lynx help inoperative, until a package with the new version is made available or the user takes corrective measures (they either build from source themselves or download the old version help files to their system).
