Hi Conrad, > Do the packaging systems on the affected operating systems support > "recommends" or "suggests"?
My impression is the only OS where this is a problem is macOS. And if it has a packaging system then groff isn't in it. So instead of FreeBSD's ‘install package groff’ prompt when mandoc has trouble, Apple plough on and use mandoc. The one escape Apple do offer is their man program checks for groff and uses that in preference to mandoc. So nmh can either recommend groff be obtained on macOS or if nmh is packaged in something like Homebrew then that's the point where a ‘depends’ or ‘recommends’ could be used. -- Cheers, Ralph.
