# man nothing
Failed to open the message catalog "man" for locale "POSIX"
(NLSPATH="/usr/share/locale/%L/%N")

No manual entry for nothing

strace is telling me that the file that was never created is /usr/share/locale/C/man .

so, after the base install, some gencat invokations should have probably created it.

man still functions.  this is just a nuisance warning, probably that things are not going as smooth as they should have.

neglected to provide `emerge info`

what are your LANG/LOCALE settings ?
what version of man ?
Comment 2 ivo welch 2004-10-16 18:24:21 UTC
man, version 1.5m

I did not set either LOCALE or LANG, so it should default to whatever.
