[arch-general] Missing man pages
I notice that some of the man pages are missing, including: find, cat, ls, uniq, tee, and tail. They were in man-pages-2.74-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz, but not man-pages-2.77-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz or man-pages-2.78-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz. Was there any reason they where removed? Thanks

The 'find' man page is in findutils, the others are in coreutils. So, try reinstalling findutils and coreutils. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

I've got them (man-pages-2.78-1). Have you got the latest /etc/profile, with 'unset MANPATH'?

It's in the 'filesystem' package.

Strange that you have not this file because it is in filesystem which is in the group base. Perhaps you should do a "pacman -Syp base" and look in the result for missing packages. See you, Attila

I'm having the same behaviour as stated by Mordechai. I have /etc/profile, but there is no 'unset MANPATH' in it. Below are my package versions: man-pages 2.78-1 filesystem 2007.11-6 My /etc/profile is attached. Armando # # /etc/profile # export PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/bin" export MANPATH="/usr/man:/usr/X11R6/man" export LESSCHARSET="latin1" export INPUTRC="/etc/inputrc" export LESS="-R" export LC_COLLATE="C" export COLUMNS LINES export PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ ' export PS2='> ' umask 022 if [ "$TERM" = "xterm" -o "$TERM" = "xterm-color" -o "$TERM" = "rxvt" -o "$TERM" = "xterm-xfree86" ]; then PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"' fi # load profiles from /etc/profile.d # (to disable a profile, just remove execute permission on it) if [ `ls -A1 /etc/profile.d/ | wc -l` -gt 0 ]; then for profile in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do if [ -x $profile ]; then . $profile fi done unset profile fi # End of file

Below are my package versions:
man-pages 2.78-1 filesystem 2007.11-6
It looks like /etc/profile was removed in bash 3.2.033-2 and added in filesystem 2008.02-2. -- Waldemar Amado Bautista

Armando You probably have an /etc/profile.pacnew which you can move to /etc/profile - be sure to make any additions that you have added to /etc/profile in /etc/profile.pacnew before moving (hmmm, I don't think you have any by the looks of the attached file).

Exactly to the point, now it works fine. My aditions are on /etc/profile.d directory. Sometimes I forget to compare the .pacnew files with the ones I'm using... Thank you very much. Armando
