Do you know examples when man files are installed on USE=-doc? Please tell me, from the top of my head there is no prominent example. The decision to set MANPATH has been derived from the discussion in bug 189639. Is there any strong argument against it, apart from environment pollution?

Please tell me, > from the top of my head there is no prominent example. sys-devel/gcc ( for gcc, gcov, cpp, ...) dev-lang/python ( for python) I think I'm actually spoiled because most of the prominent system packages like sys-devel/binutils and sys-apps/coreutils don't really have a doc USE flag. > The decision to set MANPATH has been derived from the discussion in bug 189639. > Is there any strong argument against it, apart from environment pollution? > Nope, so let it be.. Man pages are now (13.2.3) installed regardless of USE=doc. |
