Hi all, I noticed that sourcing GMXRC removes any trailing colons from a set MANPATH environment variable. This colon *is* syntactically significant, and removing it causes `mandb` to ignore /etc/manpath.config instead of appending that file:
> unset MANPATH > export MANPATH=/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/man: > # Note the trailing colon > echo $MANPATH /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/man: > mandb mandb: warning: $MANPATH set, appending /etc/manpath.config ... > source /usr/local/gromacs-2018.1/bin/GMXRC > # No more trailing colon > echo $MANPATH > /usr/local/gromacs-2018.1/share/man:/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/man mandb: warning: $MANPATH set, ignoring /etc/manpath.config ... Should I also report this on redmine, or is this sufficient? Peter
