Bug ID: 278378
Summary: man(1) ignores corrupt gzip'd manual pages
Product: Base System
Version: 15.0-CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: wosch@FreeBSD.org
man(1) ignores errors from gzip if a file is corrupt. You can see the errors
from gzip on stderr, but the exit status of man(1) will be zero.
How to repeat:
$ touch /tmp/bla.1.gz
$ /usr/bin/man /tmp/bla.1.gz >/dev/null; echo $?
gzcat: /tmp/bla.1.gz: unexpected end of file
gzcat: /tmp/bla.1.gz: unexpected end of file
gzcat: /tmp/bla.1.gz: unexpected end of file
0
In case of an error, man(1) should exit with a non-zero status.
