sys-apps/gawk (at least 4.1.1-r1, possibly earlier versions) installs /usr/share/man/man3/readdir.3am.bz2, which causes "man 3 readdir" to display that file, instead of the libc readdir() manual page as one would expect. Since the gawk library manpages are suffixed with ".3am", should they be installed in man/man3am instead of man/man3?
With sys-apps/man-db I see: $ man 3 readdir | head -n 1 READDIR(3) Linux Programmer's Manual READDIR(3) $ man 3am readdir | head -n 1 READDIR(3am) GNU Awk Extension Modules READDIR(3am) Yet with sys-apps/man I see: $ man 3 readdir | head -n1 READDIR(3am) GNU Awk Extension Modules READDIR(3am)
