>Description:
devhelp doesn't recognize the documentation installed by ports like:

gtk-reference or glib-reference.

devhelp assumes that documentation is installed at /usr/local/share/gtk-doc/html
x11-toolkits/gtk20-reference installs documentation at: /usr/local/share/doc/gtk/
devel/glib20-reference installs documentation at: /usr/local/share/doc/glib/

>How-To-Repeat:
Install x11-toolkits/gtk20-reference and devel/devhelp. Start devhelp and try to look for GTK/GDK documentation.

>Fix:
An easy fix would be to change installation path of x11-toolkits/gtk20-reference and devel/glib20-reference to /usr/local/s
hare/gtk-doc/html.

Other possible fix is creating symlinks on /usr/local/share/gtk-doc/html like:
# ln -s ../../doc/gtk/gtk/ gtk
# ln -s ../../doc/gtk/gdk/ gdk
