Subject: [bug#50330] [PATCH] gnu: mandoc: Add $MANPATH to native-search-paths.
Date: Wed, 1 Sep 2021 16:58:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210901235853.882045-1-milkeymouse@meme.institute> (raw)
* gnu/packages/man.scm (mandoc)[native-search-paths]: New field.
---
I use mandoc as a substitute for man-db, and when man-db isn't
installed, mandoc was finding no man pages as $MANPATH wasn't being
set. I don't think it causes any problems for MANPATH to be in the
native-search-paths of both mandoc and man-db, right?
