I am running Debian 1.3.1, and recently trying to run man gives a
segmentation fault when run as a normal user (but not when run as root):
% man man
Segmentation fault
xman and tkman work fine. I was fairly sure I hadn't played with any
relevant settings - the executable has setuid bit set as I would expect:
% ls -l /usr/bin/man
-rwsr-xr-x 1 man root 71204 May 21 10:40 /usr/bin/man
testing man with strace also fails as a normal user:
% strace man
execve("/usr/bin/man", ["man"], [/* 29 vars */]) = 0
strace: exec: Operation not permitted
I am rather puzzled, so any ideas gratefully received!
Thanks,
Kevin
