Description Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-03 02:52:08 UTC 
Couldn't find a man page for vim; skipping.
!!! Error: Can't set a new provider
Killed

I have FEATURES="noman" set, so man pages are never there on my system.  eselect should exit a little more gracefully

Reproducible: Always

eselect-vi-respect_noman.patch

 Imo to respect noman set_man_symlink() shouldn't return non-zero when symlinks can't be found. Attached patch does that.

Oh, damn, I never committed the fix for this that I did before (r360 in eselect's SVN). I'm gonna push out 1.1.5, which should solve this. Sorry about that. :/

Committed. Should hit your local mirror in a few hours. Thanks for the report.
