Howdy Gentoo developers, Tonight I noticed that a good many ebuilds erroneously install man pages into /usr/man instead of the LFH compliant /usr/share/man. Indeed, "man" won'y even look there in Gentoo Linux. Usually this is because of an unchecked --mandir to configure or relying defaults to make install. Attached is a patch for nautilus-1.0.6-r4 (to my -r5) to correct this kind of manpage problem (where /usr/man/man1/nautilus-xml-migrate.1 was being installed). I'll be going through the other packages guilty of /usr/man installations, so if these patches aren't wanted, please let me know now! :-) Thanks, Matthew
Created attachment 388 [details, diff] nautilus-1.0.6-r4-1.0.6-r5.patch This fixed the misplacement of manpages problem described above.
Marking this as a duplicate of 1280 so that all the LFH fixes will be grouped togehter per seemant's suggestion. Subsequent fixes will just be added as attachments/additional comments. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 1280 ***
