Bug 210927: x11/yelp does not display man pages, Illegal option -Z
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D210927



--- Description ---
yelp can display man pages if used like this:

  yelp man:ls

When I run this, I get:

  > yelp man:ls

  (yelp:5006): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: remote volume monitor w=
ith
dbus name org.gtk.vfs.HalVolumeMonitor is not supported
  Illegal option -Z
  Usage:
   man [-adho] [-t | -w] [-M manpath] [-P pager] [-S mansect]
       [-m arch[:machine]] [-p [eprtv]] [mansect] page [...]
   man -f page [...] -- Emulates whatis(1)
   man -k page [...] -- Emulates apropos(1)

It seems that an extra "-Z" argument is passed to "man". The resulting yelp
window that pops up shows a white page with just "()".
