[bug] /etc/profile.d/defines MANPATH (affected: XFree, openssl)


Could the Xfree maintainer, Harold?, remove this from profile.d.
The 'man' command no longer work id MANPATH is set.

root <AT> example.com# grep MANPATH /etc/profile.d/*.sh
/etc/profile.d/XFree86-man.sh:# NOTE: MANPATH is special, it requires a leading : in order to 
/etc/profile.d/XFree86-man.sh:# search its default paths in addition to those specified in MANPATH.
/etc/profile.d/XFree86-man.sh:export MANPATH="${MANPATH}:/usr/X11R6/man"
/etc/profile.d/openssl.sh:export MANPATH="${MANPATH}:/usr/ssl/man"
