Description Franz Hose 2005-09-17 15:41:21 UTC
x11-apps/bitmap-0.99.0

manpage is installed in /usr/share/manm , as bitmap.man.gz .

no known manual pager looks in that directory, or recognises that suffix.

This is done by the package itself instead of the ebuild.  Please file a bug at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org under product xorg and component modular build
system and post the link here.

This isn't the only package doing this:
manm # ls
bitmap.man.gz   luit.man.gz     xfs.man.gz
iceauth.man.gz  showrgb.man.gz  xhost.man.gz
Comment 2 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-19 09:38:08 UTC
Most of these are already fixed in CVS. Take a look at the Makefile.am's in
cvs.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/ and see whether they've got a variable
dist_man1_MANS. If the number "1" is missing, then they're still wrong, but I
expect they are all fixed.

Please reopen if that isn't the case.
