Package: manedit Version: 0.6.1-1 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** i gave a report on the fact that /usr/share/man is not in the gui preference settings. I discovered this situation that running manview from an xterm and been given the su cmd, manview works accordingly- but in this situation with the /usr/share/man set.
I purged manedit and delete ~/.maneditrc for root and normal user. No manpath settings were manually changed/modified. I reinstalled manedit; I entered a root Xlogin (root in gui no su in xterm). I then tested manview and it doesn't work. I entered manview in X under normal user, and it same result. Doesn't work means I tried a manpage string and no result in the yellow zone box. It only worked so far at this point as said inthe first paragraph-- The other instance I can get a result is running manview from an xterm box as normal user and instead seeing the manpage in the yellow zone box, I get the manpage result in the xterm box. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers woody APT policy: (500, 'woody'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.8 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages manedit depends on: ii groff-base 1.18.1.1-7 GNU troff text-formatting system ( ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.2-7 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-13 GCC support library ii libglib1.2 1.2.10-9 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-17 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets fo ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxi6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System Input extension li ii man-db 2.4.2-21 The on-line manual pager ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4.sarge.1 compression library - runtime manedit recommends no packages. -- no debconf information __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
