Description alex f 2004-07-27 05:03:38 UTC
Thisone is a little strange:

$ LANG=C man 5 ebuild
rm: remove write-protected regular empty file `/var/cache/man/cat5/ebuild.5.bz2'? n
Failed to open the message catalog "man" for locale "C"
(NLSPATH="/usr/share/locale/%L/%N")

Formatting page, please wait...
sh: line 1: /var/cache/man/cat5/ebuild.5.bz2: Permission denied
Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd /usr/share/man && (echo ".pl 1100i"; /bin/gunzip -c '/usr/share/man/man5/ebuild.5.gz'; echo; echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/gtbl | /usr/bin/nroff -Tlatin1 -c -mandoc | /bin/bzip2 > /var/cache/man/cat5/ebuild.5.bz2) exited with status 1.
rm: remove write-protected regular empty file `/var/cache/man/cat5/ebuild.5.bz2'? n

bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;
        perhaps it is corrupted?  *Possible* reason follows.
bzip2: Success
        Input file = /var/cache/man/cat5/ebuild.5.bz2, output file = (stdout)

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.

You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
