[MacPorts] #13444: In Leopard man page for 'port' is missing or not accessable
#13444: In Leopard man page for 'port' is missing or not accessable ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: dergaspode@gmx.info | Owner: macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Keywords: man | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ I did a clean install of Leopard, the migrated my Users. Just to be sure I deleted MacPorts as documented in the FAQ. I then did a new MacPorts install using the downloadable .dmg. Everything worked fine, the installation and then downloading packages like teTex. But the man page for port cannot be displayed. Error message ------ Cannot open the message catalog "man" for locale "de_DE.UTF-8" (NLSPATH="<none>") No manual entry for port ------ I receive the same error message with every other man page that is not available so the strange error message is propably because of Leopard having problems with other languages then English. But still there should be a man page for port. Displaying other man pages that are available works. I have an Intel Mac and I am now on 10.5.1. My login shell is tcsh. Other people veryfied that they have the same problem. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13444> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

#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 ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Changes (by jberry@macports.org): * owner: macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org => jmpp@macports.org * version: 1.5.2 => 1.6.0 Comment: This bug is due to the fact that in Leopard, MANPATH is now set explicitly by default (read path_helper(8)). In such a case, the extremely useful mapping of PATH to MANPATH (as had been done in prior versions of Mac OS X) is not performed, which means that the man pages at /opt/local/share/man are not found automatically. This problem has already been fixed in trunk. I'm not sure if the changes have yet been migrated to the 1.6 branch. Trunk installs two files, /etc/paths.d/macports and /etc/manpaths.d/macports, which contain lists of paths that should be incorporated into the PATH and MANPATH environment variables. As a workaround, install these files yourself, or set your MANPATH variable to include /opt/local/share/man. Assigning this bug to jmpp to ensure he migrates the fixes to 1.6 branch. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13444#comment:2> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

It seems to me like his man command is having problems with shell locales, from the error he reported: {{{ Cannot open the message catalog "man" for locale "de_DE.UTF-8" (NLSPATH="<none>") }}} To the original poster, what *LANG* env variable do you have set? Or is it LC_ALL? Does the problem go away if you unset either of those or if you set them to english (en_US.UTF-8)? -jmpp -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13444#comment:3> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

This propably is another bug I already filed at Apples Bugreporter. But of course the man page still is not found. I now receive the message ----- No manual entry for port ----- Is there a roadmap when 1.6.0 will be released? Thanks for taking a look at my bug report. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13444#comment:4> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
