So obvious, why could not I think that, duh? 27-Dec-2013 13:28 xfce4-terminal-0.6.3 Now, need to see if it is really this one, the problem. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

It does not, just installs a man page with 664:
{{{
for lang in C ar ca da de el es fr gl id it ja ko lt pl pt_BR pt ru sr
sv tr ug uk zh_CN; do \
file=./man/$lang/xfce4-terminal.1; \
if test -f $file ; then \
if test x"$lang" = x"C"; then \
dest=/usr/share/man/man1; \
else \
dest=/usr/share/man/$lang/man1; \
fi; \
/bin/sh
/home/fernando/tmp/paco-build-2013.12.27-13h28m17s/xfce4-terminal-0.6.3/install-sh
-d $dest; \
dest=`echo $dest/xfce4-terminal.1 | sed 's,x,x,'`; \
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 $file $dest; \
fi \
done;
}}}
But ghostscript was the other one I could find with reference to
/usr/share/man:
{{{
/bin/sh -c 'test -d /usr/share/man || mkdir -p /usr/share/man'
}}}
So, still a mystery.

Unfortunately, this sort of error can remain hidden for several days (or longer) until we need to check a man page. Does a git manpage upgrade seem a likely possibility ? If not, do you have any recent backups - and a list of what you installed - to help identify what range of packages were involved ? Did you install any other *separate* manpage tarballs ? ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

You did. Right on the spot: git. I uncompressed the tarballs in a dir1/dir2/ temp directory, and it changed the permissions. For some unknown reasons, I followed that thread but did not update my script. Repeated a wrong install, man problem back, corrected by hand and with the good script, everything is good, now. Thanks Pierre and, specially, ĸen and his wonderful memory. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Anyway, maybe you could try to find which files have 660 or 640 (or anything ending with 0) inside the /usr/share/man hierarchy? for example: find /usr/share/man \! -perm /7 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
