help with man pages
I have installed Debian 1.3 and have a problem to see man
pages. If I try to see any man page (e.g man man), I can only see
the following :
> man man
Reformatting man(1), please wait...
and the screen remains blank. After pressing CTR+C, I get my Linux
prompt back.
If I go into /usr/man/man1 and execute
zcat man.1.gz | groff -man | less
I get what I would like to see when I type "man man".
Also, the following may help: when I started the installation, I did
not have "interpreters". After fixing "interpreters" (perl, gcc, etc.)
I have still error messages related to tetex.
Any idea how to tackle this problem is very much appreaciated.
thanks
Frank
