man-db strange behaviour
Sorry Fabrizio, hallo developers,
I get this:
root@unsolved:~# man sane-mustek
Reformatting sane-mustek(5), please wait...
[man page displayed in less, where I type q(uit)]
Still saving the page, please wait...
root@unsolved:~# exit
logout
unsolved [/home/jens] $ man sane-mustek
man: can't open /tmp/zman29072aaa: Bad file descriptor
No manual entry for sane-mustek
unsolved [/home/jens] $ su -
Password:
root@unsolved:~# man sane-mustek
No manual entry for sane-mustek
root@unsolved:~#
When I then run mandb -c I can get the man page back.
As it works for root I thought it is a permission problem:
unsolved [/home/jens] $ ls -dl /tmp
drwxrwxrwt 4 root root 1024 Mar 2 14:31 /tmp
stracing man as normal user is not possible:
unsolved [/home/jens] $ strace -oman.log /usr/bin/man ssh
strace: exec: Operation not permitted
I´m sorry, I can´t give any further information.
man-db is 2.3.10-62
groff is 1.11a-2
libc6 is 2.0.7pre1-2
libdb2 is 2.3.16-3
Thanks,
Jens
