These two come as one nice little change, as they both need to go to core at the same time.
* man 1.6f-2 Build with FHS compliance. Remove the default latin1 output, let the groff decide the charset Ref: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-January/004177.html
I noticed an overzealous sed or something made the following comment block a bit odd in man.conf. Anywhere that "-Tlatin1" appeared you removed it, which makes the below comments not so helpful. Below I changed it so the second line still contains the -Tlatin1 note, and the note about UTF-8 double conversion was completely removed. # # Useful paths - note that COL should not be defined when # NROFF is defined as "groff -Tascii" or "groff -Tlatin1"; # not only is it superfluous, but it actually damages the output. # For use with utf-8, NROFF should be "nroff -mandoc" without -T option. # # If you have a new troff (version 1.18.1?) and its colored output # causes problems, add the -c option to TROFF, NROFF, JNROFF. # I'll still give groff and man my signoff though for i686, although it would be good to get this fixed in a future release. -Dan
