Yes, that was it, thanks.
For people wishing to try, I put together an experimental Debian package for
help_browser. It is available from an apt-getable repository at Alioth [1].
It works with Octave 3.0.1, the version currently in Debian testing/unstable
and works out of the box:
$ apt-get install octave-help-browser
$ octave
octave:1> help_browser plot
The patches that I used for this package are available in SVN [2]. In
particular, I made the path management more general [3], which allows the
installation of the HTML/CSS/image files in /usr/share/octave/.
Note that the "upstream version" of this package has been set to "0", since
there was no version number available.
