The option -s 3 does resrtict man to the section 3. As one cna read from the manual page of man its self: -S list, -s list, --sections=list List is a colon- or comma-separated list of `order specific' manual sections to search. This option overrides the $MANSECT environment variable. (The -s spelling is for compatibility with System V.) IMHO this bug is INVALID. The current list is given in /etc/manpath.config with the declaration of SECTION: 0 1 n l 8 3 2 5 4 9 6 7 1x 3x 4x 5x 6x 8x 1bind 3bind 5bind 7bind 8bind 1cn 8cn 1m 1mh 5mh 8mh 1netpbm 3netpbm 5netpbm 0p 1p 3p 3posix 1pgsql 3pgsql 5pgsql 3C++ 8C++ 3blt 3curses 3ncurses 3form 3menu 3db 3gdbm 3f 3gk 3paper 3mm 5mm 3perl 3pm 3pq 3qt 3pub 3readline 1ssl 3ssl 5ssl 7ssl 3t 3tk 3tcl 3tclx 3tix 7l 7nr 8c Cg g s m if one restrict man to 3 instead of using e.g. 3,3pm this is a wrong usage. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am just astonished, why this only happens for only one specific perl package. The manpage for the mysql driver installation is also available with 'man -s 3 DBD::mysql::INSTALL' I see no reason to also make it available out of context. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
