#13444: In Leopard man page for 'port' is missing or not accessable ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: dergaspode@gmx.info | Owner: jmpp@macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base bugs Component: base | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: man ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment (by jokkel@gmail.com): After just installing, I had the same problem. Although .profile contained the following lines: {{{ # MacPorts Installer addition on 2008-06-22_at_14:34:42: adding an appropriate MANPATH variable for use wi$ export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH # Finished adapting your MANPATH environment variable for use with MacPorts. }}} The manpath hadn't changed as env showed. And so there was no man page available for port and installed ports. But the changes to path worked. {{{ jokkel@myMac:~/$ env MANPATH=/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/X11/man (…) PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/opt/local/bin }}} Adding the following line to .bash_profile finally did the job. {{{ export MANPATH=${MANPATH}:/opt/local/man }}} It works now. I'm not sure what went wrong. But this should be fixed, as it is really a basic flaw on non english systems. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/13444#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
