Description antoine marmignon 2004-02-07 15:04:09 UTC 
An emerge of gcc-3.3.3-r5 installs gcc manpages in /usr/share/gcc-data/... and doesn't link them to /usr/share/man/... so that gcc manpages aren't available with the traditional "man gcc..."

Comment 1 Sven Wegener gentoo-dev 2004-02-07 15:58:08 UTC 
/etc/env.d/05gcc sets MANPATH to /usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3/man

> env-update && source /etc/profile

should fix our problem, so that

> man gcc

gives you the gcc man-page as expected
