Bug Description

I refer to the bug #1869561 "Libreoffice Help does not work". As mentioned there in #39:

 " In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug "

I am using Version:

6.4.6.2 Build-ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1

but the problem still persists and it is annoying

I just tested 6.4.7 that is in focal updates on a fresh focal vm. I found that no matter how you open the help (F1 or Help->LO Help), it opens in FF just fine.

So can you please describe the error you see? Perhaps attach a screenshot?

I have made a screenshot of what happens when pressing F1 or trying to open the help function with a shortcut. Libre Office tries to start the old help window what is not longer supperted. (By the way, it was a very bad idea to use the browser as help display).

This screenshot is now from Version: 6.4.7.2 Build-ID: 1:6.4.7-0ubuntu0.20.04.1

I don't know what else I could give you as more detailed information. Tell me of what I have to check for.
