I'd like to be able to disable the automatic creation of formatted man
pages. I find generating the formatted pages for display on the fly
fast enough and am running low on disk on one of my systems. The man
page on man :-) mentions:
If enabled by the system administrator, formatted man pages will
also be compressed with the `/usr/bin/gzip -c' command to save
space.
It doesn't say how to disable generating them in the first place.
/etc/host.conf mentions compressing *un*formatted man pages (fine) but
nothing about creation of formatted pages. I don't see any relevant
fields in /etc/manpath.config either.
Pointers please? Thanks.
