--=-oqcSrzO0rvx4GzVXRbBA Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable A very recent buildworld (yesterday) on -current has caused problems with troff and my man pages: troff: fatal error: can't find macro file tty-char Upon investigation, I found that troff was looking for macros in the default /usr/local/share/tmac dirs instead of /usr/share/tmac of freebsd. This is fixed by setting GROFF_TMAC_PATH to the correct paths, but although my buildworld didn't have problems, a lot of man pages display nothing. Is this supposed to be set or is troff patched for this on freebsd? These were missing man pages on my system: man grep (but egrep, fgrep etc. works) find a make clean, make, make install fixes bins that have the manual missing. All the other common commands I use, all seem to have man working properly. I hope I have provided enough clues on why, some man pages weren't installed and why troff can't find macros by default.=20 Does this problem affect anybody else? -- FreeBSD 5.1-BETA 1:41PM up 1:06, 1 user, load averages: 0.82, 0.85, 0.81 --=-oqcSrzO0rvx4GzVXRbBA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA+vef9DAqnLW/+/X8RAobxAJ0QT6Fzf0bvtNG4WAMPHcYTc1DvbACgmqqk cdRBid5OORtPBCIZtx3b4/8= =eUMl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-oqcSrzO0rvx4GzVXRbBA--
