Hello,

i have a small problem.

I have just installed MascPorts, and tried

$ man port

but received

No manual entry for portgroup

Maybe your $MANPATH doesn't include /opt/local/share/man/, if you add

export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:/opt/local/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man

to your .profile all should work correctly.

I thinks the tiger version of man have hardcoded other paths, since

MANPATH doesn't have to include system man page folders.

My MANPATH is empty but I still seem to be able to read manpages for ports. I'm on Tiger.

look up man(1) for the details, but on Tiger the man command looks at each item in your PATH, changes any "/bin" into "/man", and searches there for manpages.

To bring this back to MacPorts, if I remember correctly, this is the only reason why ${prefix}/man -> ${prefix}/share/man is still around.  It was decided ages ago that the canonical location for man pages is ${prefix}/share/man

Ok, after changing my MANPATH, i can use

$ man port , 

but not man for specific ports.

For example, 

$ man transfig

or

$ man xfig

do not work.

What are the other directories that i should add to MANPATH?

Here are my variables:

MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:/usr/local/teTeX/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/man

PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current:/usr/local/bin

INFOPATH=/usr/local/teTeX/info:/usr/local/share/info:/usr/local/lib/info:/usr/local/info:/usr/share/info

Thanks.

Alexey.
