Steps to reproduce: 1. emerge perl 2. cd to /usr/share/man/man3 3. list directory contents Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Every manpage is installed twice, one with a *.3pm.gz suffix and another one with a *.3.gz suffix, with identical timestamp and contents. Expected Results: only one instance of each manpage!
This is a tough bug. There was a correction to the eclass that addressed this a few weeks ago. The problem lay in how makemaker was handling the man page generation. Testing this this morning, I cannot reproduce - man pages are being created with the 3pm.tar.gz only (no 3.tar.gz). Closing this out for now, please reopen this bug if it still persists.
