[SLE] Silly question - I don't know how to use man
Hello I know that this is a rather silly question but I definitely need help. For instance, I installed procmail on my system. The manuals were placed at /usr/man/man1 and /usr/man/man5 as *.1.gz or *1.bz2 and *.5.gz or *.5.bz2. When I type man procmail the sys returns no manual page for it. What am I missing here? Thanks a lot.

Perhaps /usr/man is not in your MANDATORY_MANPATH line in /etc/manpath.config. My procmail man pages are in /usr/share/man. Try creating a symlink in /usr/share to /usr/man. That might help solve your problem. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
