Description Nicholas Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-07-02 06:08:59 UTC
Apparently groff assumes that Xfree's bins are in the path... which isn't
correct. 'su -' should emulate this proper behavior. Any

test -f grnexmpl.g || cp
/var/tmp/portage/groff-1.18.1-r2/work/groff-1.18.1/doc/grnexmpl.g .

Disregard this one... It's a bug due to a typo in the BSD additions.
Only occurs in 48-r3/48-r2 of portage.
