Thank you Detlev for your reply.

I could not find the Rope or Jedi plugins but I did find, under "plugin 
repository", Python and Qt5 plugins. Pressing "download and install" 
resulted in the following:

Could not download the requested file from 
https://eric-ide.python-projects.org/plugins6/stable/PluginDocumentationSets_Qt512.zip.

Error: Error creating SSL context ()

Am I missing an ssl dev file?

I do have /usr/share/doc/qt4-doc-html because of a previous installation 
of eric 17 (not from pip) and I do have /usr/share/doc/qt5-doc-html but 
without the html directory.

So, to display the help information within the eric IDE do I need to 
solve the missing html directory from /usr/share/doc/qt5-doc-html or do 
I need to discover why I cannot install the help files from the plugin 
repository?
