Hi all, I am putting a new port together, but the source for the man pages is not provided in the source tar for the package (and I can't find a public repo). Instead only the "preprocessed" version is included. What is the correct way to install these man pages? Using INSTALL_MAN to drop them in man/manX obviously causes formatting oddities, so should they go in man/catX? I can see some other ports do this, but it seems a bit hacky as the MAN[1-9] variables cannot be used and the man pages will have to be listed in pkg_plist. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated! Jake
