New man-db package available for testing...
Ok...I think I fixed it and it was easier than I thought....
I simply recompiled using gdbm routines instead of the libdb that comes
with glibc (maybe a bug there?). After running mandb again, apropos/man
-k worked fine for me AND my index.bt file was relatively small (only 500k
which is much better than before). It also included good information,
hence the working apropos.
Anyway, I haven't uploaded the new package yet (pending a better testing
during the day). In the meantime, the new package is available on my site
at:
beezer.med.miami.edu:/pub/chris/mandb-test
Please test and let me know how well it works/doesn't :)
Oh, also, has anyone gotten around to testing the ppp package I compiled?
I don't want to upload it in case it still suffers from the routing
problems that were fixed in the currently available package.
Chris
