https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480799 Summary: man/groff: output to pipe is broken Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Development AssignedTo: pth@novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@medozas.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer I noticed that output to a pipe randomly outputs (or not), there being totally broken. This affects even a simple testcase such as the infamous Useless Use Of Cat: man ls | cat For other manpages - maybe it is related to length of the page - it works: man bash | cat (This can be used to produce a text/plain file of a manpage, using e.g. man -l foobar.8 | perl -pe 's/.\cH//g' >foobar.txt) -- 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.
