Description postmodern 2005-01-06 19:27:33 UTC 
gimp-2.0.4 installs man pages to the wrong names. "man gimp" does not work while "man gimp-2.0" does, this is highly annoying when you need to get to "man gimptool".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge >=gimp-2.0.4
2. man gimp
3.

Actual Results:  
No manual entry for gimp


Expected Results:  
man page found.

Comment 1 Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-01-07 15:11:43 UTC 
This is due to the way ./configure is called from the ebuild. It is passed the --disable-default-binary argument, which - naturally - also disables the installation of default-binary man pages.

This is done to allow having multiple versions of the gimp installed at the same time (like 1.2.x, 2.0.x).

I suggest closing as NOTABUG.
