Konqueror's man: URL is used to display man pages. Some man pages are not dispayed properly. On man:ntp.conf many keyword description are mangled. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open konqueror 2. open man:ntpd.conf Actual Results: in section Configuration Commands: [ key key | autokey ] [burst ] [iburst ] [version version ] [prefer ] [minpoll minpoll ] [maxpoll maxpoll ] in section Miscellaneous Options: [auth | bclient calibrate | kernel monitor | ntp pps | stats ] Expected Results: from 'man ntp.conf': server address [key key | autokey] [burst] [iburst] [version version] [prefer] [minpoll minpoll] [maxpoll maxpoll] and enable [auth | bclient | calibrate | kernel | monitor | ntp | pps | stats] respectively. caused me a lot of grief while trying to debug my ntpd configuration! accuracy of man pages is essential to any system.

You _are_ aware that ntp.conf and ntpd.conf are two distinct files, I assume. Which of them are we talking about? And from which of the many ntp daemon packages do this file come? I have found a manpage for ntpd.conf from the openntpd package, but the sections you list aren't in it, and it's identical in both konqueror (3.5.6) and from a terminal.

thanks :) I can confirm on konqueror-3.5.6. It sounds to me like something that should be filed upstream, but I don't have any non-gentoo system to verify the bug.

(In reply to comment #5) > i don't have either. besides, gentoo devs encourage people to file here first > instead of going directly to upstream. Yep - that is a wise thing to do. If for no other reason, they might be able to patch whatever problem a bug points out so we don't have to wait for a release from upstream :)
I can see it also on Konqueror 3.5.5 on the other hand there are repport than kio:man has some trouble with some groof things... In the case of ntp.conf it seems to be the Xo macro (I think it's an 'mdoc' macro... but I'm a diletante as far as groff is concerned) You can verify this hypothesis by testing against man:sftp on konkeror you should be missi [ get ls put] in the 'interactive commands' section. As far as I can tell, these (ntp.conf and sftp) are the two man pages on my machine that use this particular macro. The following patch to ntp.conf, make it display 'right' for both Konqueror and xterm on my machine ---------------------------------------------------- --- ntp.conf.5 2006-10-06 08:01:35.000000000 -0400 +++ ntp.conf-patch.5 2007-03-17 02:32:22.000000000 -0400 @@ -132,8 +132,8 @@ qualifier forces DNS resolution to the IPv6 namespace.
