When one installs ports/lang/gawk (which is version 3.1.0, and has an important feature, namely asort()) the manpage goes into /usr/local/man1 and so it is never seen. There are two ways around this: either not install the gawk.1 manpage with the system's awk, or rename the manpage for the port to something like gawk310 or so. >Description: >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
