Actually it's not just about Empathy, but there are quite a few similar
links to help documents of other applications which are not installed by
default either. Not sure right now how it should best be dealt with.

Title:
  In the Ubuntu desktop guide The URI ‘help:empathy/index’ does not
  point to a valid page.

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:	16.04

  ubuntu-docs:
    Installed: 16.04.3
    Candidate: 16.04.3
    Version table:
   *** 16.04.3 500
          500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
          500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  This bug relates to the following section of the Ubuntu help.

  Ubuntu Desktop Guide » Networking, web, e-mail & chat » Chat & Social
  Networking » Instant messaging on Ubuntu

  In this section the third paragraph (excluding the information box)
  contains the text:

  "For help with using Empathy, read the Empathy manual." where the
  words "Empathy manual" are a link.

  The expected action is that following this link would take you to a
  manual of the Empathy program.

  Instead following the link results in this error message:

  Document Not Found
  The URI ‘help:empathy/index’ does not point to a valid page.
