Hi folks, I'm having a minor problem with man. It leaves a file index.bt in the current directory. If I remove the file and then run man again it is replaced with a new file that diff says is different than the first (even if the man file I read is the same). If I leave the file alone, then modification date stays the same as when it was originally created and diff finds no difference in the file before and after running another man.
I'm just wondering if there is a way to stop man from creating these files. It would be really nice to be able to run man from any directory without having to worry about the stray index.bt's all over my system. I have man-db version 2.3.10-69g. Thanks for listening! Andrew
