Same error. yurkjes@iit.edu 2002-08-05 00:23:26 0000 I manually got it to build by taking the -DGREPSILENT=\'q\' out from the command line and manually editing man.c in 2 places (i think), replacing the GREPSILENT with 'q' in the source code. It then compiled properly and i appear to be able to run man, makewhatis, and whatis itself without any problems... but a friend was able to compile 1.5k without any problems with the same version of all software (we essentially had the exact same packages to upgrade if we both did a -pu world so everything else should be the same) azarah@gentoo.org 2002-08-07 16:37:04 0000 Could you try to first remerge grep, then gcc and see if that makes an difference? azarah@gentoo.org 2002-12-25 22:56:11 0000 New info ... azarah@gentoo.org 2002-12-25 22:56:43 0000 Just had the same issue. It should be fixed for man-1.5k-r1.
