You can do whatever you wish. :-) Nothing keeps you from setting up *your* system the way *you* like it. However, for packages that are self-enclosed in a subdir of /opt, I don't think that /usr/share/man/man1 is "the right place". What typically is in the instructions (however, I notice it is absent in the JDK instructions, but it is in my build script) is you just adjust your MANPATH environment variable or tweak /etc/man.conf. This should probably be put in bugzilla so it is not forgotten. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 16:31:01 up 103 days, 1:55, 3 users, load average: 0.07, 0.17, 0.37 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
