Description:   Opened: 2007-04-08 16:26 0000 
There seems to be a bug in the tcsh.man2html perl script in tcsh-6.14-r3 at
least that makes it misbehave if it is called without parameters and its STDIN
is not a tty => it will wait on input from STDIN wich:
1. will be EOF if emerge is run </dev/null => generated docs are empty
2. will never come (hang) if emerge is run </dev/zero or some other
non-readready fh.

Easy solution: change the line
perl tcsh.man2html || die
to
perl tcsh.man2html tcsh.man || die

This bug is triggered while installing through kuroo, but maybe other such
utilities or for some people who do updates via cron or whatever.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge tcsh < /dev/zero


Actual Results:  
Emerge stalls.


Only tested tcsh-6.14-r3.ebuild
