https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D279774 Bug ID: 279774 Summary: man(1) displays first file from current directory instead of .so file Product: Base System Version: 14.1-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: sean@donelan.com Created attachment 251480 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D251480&action= =3Dedit patch for usr.bin/man.sh to check null filename When a manpage contains a .so link to a second manpage, man(1) displays fir= st file in current directory The function exists() in man.sh uses file globbing to check if file exists. When called with a null filename, such as when redirecting .so link to new manpage file, globbing returns the name of the first file in the current directory. sean@clifden:~ % zgrep -e "^\.so" /usr/local/share/man/man1/doveadm-backup* /usr/local/share/man/man1/doveadm-backup.1.gz:.so man1/doveadm-sync.1 sean@clifden:~ % man -w doveadm-backup a-file-in-directory (source: "/usr/local/share/man/man1/doveadm-sync.1.gz") Patched result sean@clifden:/usr/bin % man -w doveadm-backup /usr/local/share/man/man1/doveadm-sync.1.gz --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
