#29752: port select does not update man pages -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: paul.anton.letnes@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: MacPorts 2.0.0 Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: gcc gfortran man manpage | Port: -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Description changed by ryandesign@…: Old description:
% sudo port select gcc mp-gcc4 Selecting 'mp-gcc45' for 'gcc' succeeded. 'mp-gcc45' is now active. % gfortran --version GNU Fortran (GCC) 4.5.3 Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

% man gfortran No manual entry for gfortran
% man gfortran-mp-4.5 # This works!
The problem may exist for some other port groups like e.g. python. The same problem exists for gcc as for gfortran - 'man gcc' gives the 'apple gcc' man page.
