Based on this theory, I think I've fixed this bug for man-db 2.6.0. Fri Jan 7 23:49:55 GMT 2011 Colin Watson <[email protected]> * src/man.c (format_display_and_save): Drop SIGPIPE handling. pipeline_pump handles this itself, and doing it here means that SIGPIPE is incorrectly ignored in subprocesses (Debian bug #597756).
