Setup for FHS compliant man pages - FS#8839 Claim ownership of /etc/profile from bash - FS#4766 Remove LESSCHARSET env var from /etc/profile - FS#8877
Please test. This goes hand-in-hand with the bash package (see other sign off)
/etc/profile was also largely revamped. Please comment on that if you'd like to, we can always add more stuff before it's out of testing.

So what does this do when /usr/man/man3 is a directory with manpages and /usr/man/man3 is a symlink to /usr/share/man/man3 in the new package? Shouldn't we move /usr/man to /usr/share/man in pre_install and pre_upgrade?

Both bash and filesystem work ok for me, or atleast as they used to. I've been having a problem with bash for a while now in my build chroot, where I'm unable to login to my username within the chroot more than once. When I open a new terminal and chroot and 'su username', it logs in, but when I start typing, it exits back to the chroot default login. However, when i chroot /chroot /bin/zsh , or other, it works fine for me.

Negative on the signoff. When I upgraded (bash and filesystem at the same time), I never got the new /etc/profile (I had customized my old one, I'm guessing that makes a difference). In addition, /etc/profile is not in either the bash backup array OR the filesystem backup array, and /etc/profile.bash is also not in the array.

Same thing actually, but I thought this was expected behaviour since I had customised /etc/profile. I manually replaced with the new /etc/profile to test.

OK, couple of things here.
* etc/profile IS backed up in the filesystem package. profile.bash was not, so thanks for that. I think we may have hit a pacman issue here - there is special handling to handle the case of a file changing hands (profile moved from bash to filesystem), but i think this may collide with the backup handling. lemme see if I can throw a pactest at this.
* I will rebuild filesystem containing a fix for fs#6350 later, and additionally rebuild bash for patch level 033 (up from 025 - their servers were down for a bit, I had to scp patch sources around to build).
Any other issues to fix while I'm at it?
Dan, could you weigh in on the profile thing? If this is a pacman issue, what do we do?
