Bug 172761 – Stabilize sys-apps/man-1.6e-r1 (or later) now that coreutils-6.7-r1 is stable

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Hans de Graaff 2007-03-30 07:42:29 UTC]

coreutils-6.7-r1 moved some utilities from /bin/ to /usr/bin and this also affects sys-apps/man. The currently stable version still refers to /bin/nice as shown in this output from the makewhatis cron job:

/etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: /bin/nice: No such file or directory
/etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: exec: /bin/nice: cannot execute: No such file or directory

This is fixed in man-1.6e-r1, but that version is currently not stable. I'm not sure if -r1 or a later version should be stabled, I'm sure the maintainers can judge this more accurately.

Reproducible: Always
