I'm to the point where I'm ready to the commit the code, but I wanted to layout a plan for the conversion and ask for input to make sure I didn't miss anything.
1. Commit the code located at http://people.freebsd.org/~gordon/man.shar into src/usr.bin/man (pending mentor review). 2. Unhook src/gnu/usr.bin/man from the build. 3. Unhook src/etc/manpath.config from the build (in src/etc/Makefile). 4. Add entry to src/ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove etc/manpath.config. 5. Hook src/usr.bin/man to the build. 6. Alter src/etc/mtree/BSD.local.mtree to include an entry for LOCALBASE/etc/man.d 7. Add entry into src/UPDATING about the change over deprecating /etc/manpath.config 8. Bump __FreeBSD_version in src/sys/sys/param.h 9. Document version bump in doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/book.sgml 10. Contact following ports owners to use new include system rather than manipulating /etc/manpath.config directly: japanese/man lang/perl5.8 lang/perl5.10 lang/perl5.12 11. Contact following ports owners to use new include system rather than displaying a message in pkg-message: graphics/tcm lang/erlang lang/metaocaml 12. Contact following ports owners to change their scripts as needed to accommodate the fact there isn't a manpath.config anymore: ports-mgmt/tinderbox x11/xorg-libraries I think that's everything. Am I missing anything?
