The package uses doman/newman on a compressed file which is invalid per PMS: doman docs/man/${PN}.1.gz
jstein and I are discussing a fix at https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/14535 right now. For the record, the original issue of calling "doman docs/man/${PN}.1.gz" does not existing in current Nikola ebuilds 7.8.15 and 7.8.15-r1 any more but there is a related warning... * Colliding files found by ecompress: * * /var/tmp/portage/www-apps/nikola-7.8.15-r1/image/usr/share/man/man1/nikola.1 * /var/tmp/portage/www-apps/nikola-7.8.15-r1/image/usr/share/man/man1/nikola.1.gz * * Please remove the extraneous compressed variants. ...during installation and the user ends up with two compressed man pages: # ls -1 /usr/share/man/man1/nikola.* /usr/share/man/man1/nikola.1.bz2 /usr/share/man/man1/nikola.1.gz We're about to fix that.
