Details

Description:
The built-in documentation of the Atril document viewer cannot be opened unless the 'yelp' package is installed.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Remove the 'yelp' package if it is installed on your system.
2. Open Atril document viewer.
3. In the top menu bar, click Help -> Contents. Notice that Atril Help does not open. No error message whatsoever is shown.
4. Install Yelp.
5. Try to open Atril Help again. Notice that this time, it opens successfully.

I'll leave it to the atril package maintainer to decide whether Yelp should be a hard or soft dependency.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  In general, you need a help viewer to display programs help. Your DE should be responsible for installing it as a dependency.

yelp is not strictly necessary. Any help viewer will work. It works fine here on Plasma with khelpcenter.
