Description & manual fix below. /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/groff Makefiles should deal with these issues: /usr/src/contrib/groff/src/include/defs.h What creates it ? (ports?) Should it be removed by make clean. Should it be in /usr/obj not /usr/src What about a /usr/src mounted read only. The Problem: { If you accidentally (**) create /usr/src/contrib/groff/src/include/defs.h A make clean fails to remove defs.h. A make compiles all these executables grn grodvi groff grolbp grolj4 grops grotty post-grohtml pre-grohtml troff with a non existant font paths in /usr/local (instead of, not as well as, base fonts in /usr/share/groff_font ). groff fails, so man fails & make world fails.
