Follow-up Comment #14, bug #53841 (project octave):

The more robust error message is showing that Octave is looking for the help
file in

/home/octave-4.4.0/doc/interpreter/octave_interpreter.qhc

rather than the system directory.  How are you running Octave?  

Either one should do a "make install", in which case launching Octave would
simply be "octave --gui &".  Otherwise, if it is a local build then one would
do something like "<path-to-build-dir>/run-octave --gui &".  That "run-octave"
sets up the environment properly.

But the path above makes no sense to me.  /home/octave-4.4.0 would be a user
account "octave-4.4.0", not some "directory".  I can't imagine you created a
system account "octave-4.4.0".
