Hi,

Actually, I am not sure it could have happenned with OpenJDK 7. My test is with OpenJDK 8, but I think the instructions for this part do not depend on that. After issuing "mandb -c /opt/jdk/man", I get:
----
Processing manual pages under /opt/jdk/man...
mandb: warning: cannot create catdir /var/cache/man/jdk
mandb: can't create index cache /var/cache/man/jdk/18377: No such file or directory mandb: can't update index cache /var/cache/man/jdk/18377: No such file or directory
done.
----
The reason is that /var/cache/man does not exist.

But it is the first time I see that. I guess that I have always run "mandb" before building Icedtea, so that /var/cache/man was existing. This time, I have built with only required and recommended deps and instructions (for testing), and never run "mandb".

Can anybody confirm that? (if it is confirmed, I'll include a "mkdir -p /var/cache/man" in the isntructions).

Regards,
Pierre
