Bug#2798: mandb doesn't like man pages from mailagent
Thanks for the bug report. I had a hard time finding on line
references to the syntax of the .so directive (my [nt]roff references
are at work, but I finally tracked it down in the man page on my DEC
alpha machines). It turns out that mandb is correct, the .so lines
should be just man?/foo.? I am attempting a correction now (the
package is very clever about configurable sections to put man pages
into, so I have to modify the auto man page generation process).
I'll also forward the patches upstream.
