Two lines in ebuild.5 begin with '. This makes the text lines to control lines and so the lines are not printed. These ' can be replaced by \(cq Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
fixed, thanks
wrong fix -- look at the output. unfortunately escaping doesn't work this way.
i did look at the output and it rendered fine :P * means match any version of the package so long as the specified base is matched. So with a ver- sion of '2*', we can match '2.1', '2.2', '2.2.1', etc... and not match version '1.0', '3.0', '4.1', etc... emake [make options] This is used as a replacement for make. Performs 'make ${MAKEOPTS} make options' (as set in /etc/make.globals), default is MAKEOPTS="-j2".
Here is mine: ...can match '2.1', '2.2',
Here is mine: ...can match '2.1', '2.2', ´2.2.1', et... ...rforms ´make ${MAKEOPTS} make options' .... man 7 groff: \' The acute accent ´; same as \(aa. Unescaped: apostrophe, right quotation mark, single quote (ASCII 0x27). \` The grave accent `; same as \(ga. Unescaped: left quote, back- quote (ASCII 0x60). It looks best here with \(cq -- or if you don't want do fight this out move the line-break ;)
does it still look like that if you do `man -c ./ebuild.5` ?
Yes, it does.
if you have a leading space, does that resolve this ? as you may have noticed, i wish to avoid escape sequences :)
line-break and leading space: | can match '2.1', '2.2', | '2.2.1', etc... and not match version '1.0', '3.0', | '4.1', etc... and | This is used as a replacement for make.
