help with man-db
Hi.
I'm having problems with Motif man pages which I installed on my system.
If I run, say, "man XmString" I get the following error messages:
Reformatting XmString(3x), please wait...
zsoelim: /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XmString.3x:292: \\$1: No such file or
directory
zsoelim: \\$1.gz: No such file or directory
zsoelim: /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XmString.3x:292: warning: failed .so request
zsoelim: /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XmString.3x:329: /tmp/pI.tmp.: No such file
or directory
zsoelim: /tmp/pI.tmp..gz: No such file or directory
zsoelim: /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XmString.3x:329: warning: failed .so request
input in flex scanner failed
And then only part of the page is displayed.
Meanwhile,
zcat /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XmString.3x.gz | groff -Tascii -tmandoc - | less
works perfectly.
If anyone have any idea on how to fix that, I would be very obliged.
I can send the example of the problem page, if needed.
Thanks a lot.
Alex Y.
