Package: man-db Version: 2.4.3-3 Severity: normal
i'd include --debug, but i do not have the scrollback buffer to do so. man -W cannot be piped or redirected or substituted in the shell. this prevents the ability for wrappers to man to use the cache that man uses. likewise --debug. my proposed solution is to send all output to stdio. thanks. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16myver Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages man-db depends on: ii bsdmainutils 6.1.3 collection of more utilities from ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.1 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.13.21 package maintenance system for Deb ii groff-base 1.18.1.1-12 GNU troff text-formatting system ( ii libc6 2.3.6-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-3 GNU dbm database routines (runtime man-db recommends no packages. -- debconf information: man-db/build-database: false * man-db/rebuild-database: true * man-db/install-setuid: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
