https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D256421 John Hein <jcfyecrayz@liamekaens.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |jcfyecrayz@liamekaens.com --- Comment #12 from John Hein <jcfyecrayz@liamekaens.com> --- FYI, libX11-1.7.1 renders fine on FreeBSD. Before that it used a roff macro not supported by FreeBSD's standard man parsing tools. Before 1.7.1, it did not render the include file (per the OP) in the man page in the terminal ei= ther (with standard FreeBSD man page rendering tools). Specifically, upstream stopped using .hN and replaced it with .BR in 1.7.1 = and later. See the following upstream commit: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/commit/14fb4e535626ba934ca= d5bc4308f511524cd1103 It replace .hN with .BR due to the committer's version of groff complaining about .hN The FreeBSD web site is still (as the time of this writing) rendering a man page for XOpenDisplay based on libX11-1.6.12 1.7.0 was committed to the main ports tree 20210511. 1.7.1 was committed 20210520. So the FreeBSD web page is not wrong. It just does not use tools that supp= ort the .hN macro ("header name"). I briefly tried to search the web for references about the history of .hN, = but I have not yet found much information about where it came from originally a= nd what macro package allegedly supports/supported it. But upstream libX11 "fixed" things such that when the freebsd web page man pages catch up to the latest ports tree version, it should just starting working. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
