Bug 202376 – www-servers/apache-2.2.6-r5 - man page error

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Richard Scott 2007-12-15 12:08:49 UTC]

the apache2 man page is not installed with apache-2.2.6-r5

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge apache
2. man apache2
Actual Results:  
# man apache2
No manual entry for apache2


Expected Results:  
to view the man page

It seems that this was fixed in 2.2.6-r2 under this bug:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194828

but it looks like its back as I notice this during the install:

cp: cannot stat `/var/tmp/portage/www-servers/apache-2.2.6-r5/work/httpd-2.2.6/docs/man/httpd.8': No such file or directory

It's supposed to install apache2 manpage, not httpd manpage. `equery f apache | grep man` and post the output.

[Comment 2 Richard Scott 2007-12-15 12:26:39 UTC]

yes, that's exactly my point. Neither are installed!

# equery f apache | grep man
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/man/man8
/usr/share/man/man8/apxs.8.bz2
/usr/share/man/man8/suexec.8.bz2

Oh well, I thought you are complaining about the "No such file or directory" thing which is perfectly expected... missing doman here ;)

It was fixed in 2.2.6-r4 :) .
