Description Kevin Bryan 2005-11-29 07:03:02 UTC
from the CONTENTS file for my gcc-3.3.6 install:

/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/man/man3/_var_tmp_portage_gcc-3.3.6_work_build_i686-pc-linux-gnu_libstd

(There is more, but you get the idea).  Apparently these give directory listings
 for the include directories.  If these are considered valuable content, then I
at least recommend fixing the names so it doesn't include the build path.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge doxygen
2. emerge gcc
3. man _var_tmp...
(note last step depends on $BUILD_PREFIX)
Actual Results:  
man _var_tmp_portage_gcc-3.3.6_work_gcc-3.3.6_
produces a web page

Expected Results:  
Either no manpages for directories, or much shorter and more meaningful names
