A problem I noticed some time ago, but didn't get around to looking into until recently -- was that root could no longer read man pages. They always came up "not found".
Somehow root's env was slightly different than my standard user name -- but what worked: it turns out that man was a link: /usr/bin/man => mandb and the real man was at /usr/lib64/man-db/man.
On my TumbleWeed system the above setting work as expected for root and ...
Restoring 'man' to /usr/bin (so no mandb was in the way) got rid of the problem.
Seems like mandb isn't a good replacement for man -- NOTE... I haven't integrated all the changes from 13.1, and this may have been fixed... but I thought I'd document my experience...
Most likely related to some other change you make to your systems :^). -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
