Description Heinrich Rebehn 2004-11-06 09:57:50 UTC
/usr/bin/manpath is usually a link to /usr/bin/man.
It displays the current path for finding man pages
(see man man(1)).
However, this symlink is not created when emerging man(1).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sys-apps/man
2. # which manpath
3. 

Actual Results:  
manpath was not found

Expected Results:  
show the location of manpath
