So when we install packages like the X11 man pages in /usr/X11/man, we would need to have them add a property to the windex service? Is the system default property list going to contain just /usr/share/man or all the places man pages come by default? > 1. http://cr.opensolaris.org/~mgerdts/windex-service/ As long as you're in makewhatis, can you throw a "-u" after sort and fix 4858166 (makewhatis should remove duplicate windex entries) too? Thanks for tackling this long standing pain in Solaris. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith at sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering
