Re: Please Upload: mingw-runtime-3.12-2 (gold stars for Volker and Chris)
There does seem to be an issue though:
ironhead@EUSD002605 /usr/share/man/mingw
$ ls
basename.mingw dirname.mingw
ironhead@EUSD002605 /usr/share/man/mingw
$ man mingw basename
No entry for basename in section mingw of the manual
ironhead@EUSD002605 /usr/share/man/mingw
$ man -v
man, version 1.6e
I found the problem. man is expecting manmingw not mingw (for the
section), so what it's looking for is:
/usr/share/man/manmingw/basename.mingw
/usr/share/man/manmingw/dirname.mingw
not
/usr/share/man/mingw/basename.mingw
/usr/share/man/mingw/dirname.mingw
Which makes sense really, given how the existing sections work.
Should I make a new release to work in this fashion, or should man be
modified?
