Hi again, I think maybe I got misunderstood ... Actually, when you compile a software yourself in a specified prefix, you usually get a /man directory under the base directory. Obviously, this path isn't included in the manpath. I'd like to know if it`s good to add that path to /etc/profile so all users will have access to it, or if it`s better to use another technique?

Hi people,

I just installed a software from the sources (postgreSQL) and i specified a prefix so it is now installed under /usr/local/postgresql-7.4.2.

I added a symlink (/usr/local/pgsql) that points to /usr/local/postgresql-7.4.2.

I`d like the postgresql mans to be available. What would be the best way to do so?

Thanks!
