I'm not sure though, but I guess that FreeBSD requires man pages also in /usr/share/man, so this could be changed as well in the next hg commit. However, it's not a critical change and we should thus just add it to the "todo" list. :) >> However, I was not able to test the changes because HG is currently >> "somewhat" broken and make will fail on the first thing to compile >> (ossdevlinks.c) - but it WILL need some testing... >> > Strange.
