This problem is getting to me.
What I /did/ do was to reinstall man, libgz and libdb from the SuSE
RPM's as follows:
rpm -U -vv --force db-1.85-8.i386.rpm
rpm -U -vv --force libz-1.1.1-1.i386.rpm
rpm -U -vv --force man-2.3.10-8.i386.rpm
Would you believe, man STILL gives the "Segmentation fault" message!!
If /anyone/ has any suggestions, please let me know. I never knew how
many times I ran 'man' until now :-)
BTW, Michael, I don't have strace installed now. I guess that's my next
alternative, but is it on the SuSE distro?
