(apropos '("frame") nil)
Then the user sees
Creating Frames
Fit Frame to Image
Frame Parameters
Frame Parameters-5
Frames
Goto Frame...
Man-frame-parameters
but there is nothing the user can do with them.
There are not linked to where they were retrieved from.

I cannot reproduce this. Is this in "emacs -Q"?

You're right. I'm sorry.
The bug is:
(describe-variable 'apropos-do-all) should mention that setting
apropos-do-all to t will lead to including items in apropos output,
that when clicked upon, will show e.g.,
apropos-symbol-button-display-help: There is nothing to follow for ‘Creating Frames’

I set apropos-do-all to t before running 'apropos', and I still cannot
reproduce. I see none of the items you list.

I see. Here's a pristine test. Sorry.
$ emacs -Q --eval '(setq apropos-do-all t)' --eval '(apropos "frame")'
Then put the cursor on "all-frames" and hit RET. That will give:
apropos-symbol-button-display-help: There is nothing to follow for ...

OK, I see it now. Not sure why this is a bug (after all, the message
you get is clear and speaks for itself), but will try to look into
this, time permitting.
