Description Guenther Brunthaler 2009-05-27 20:11:00 UTC
When emerging the now-stabilized =app-portage/layman-1.2.3 on amd64, while all the default paths have changed to /usr/local/portage/layman, the
documentation still refers to /usr/portage/local/layman.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge =app-portage/layman-1.2.3
2.Open file /usr/share/doc/layman-1.2.3/html/layman.8.html
3.Look at the outdated references to /usr/portage/local/layman

Actual Results:  
/usr/portage/local/layman is mentioned in the documentation.

Expected Results:  
/usr/local/portage/layman should be mentioned in the documentation.

The same problem applies to the man page, too.

This is a follow-up of bug 234918 (which already has been closed).
Comment 2 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2009-06-29 01:06:16 UTC
The man pages installed by layman-1.2.0-r1 also have old references to /usr/portage/local.
Haven't checked 1.2.3 yet though, but wanted to leave this note about man pages probably being affected too together with the CCing notification.
Comment 3 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2009-06-29 01:09:58 UTC
Was able to upgrade layman on one machine to the latest available version in portage (1.2.3), and verified that the latest still references /usr/portage/layman in its man page as well.

Thanks for the note!
