Is anyone else successfully building man pages with
groff 1.19?
I just upgraded my O/S to Mandrake and got groff 1.19.
I have some manpages that formatted just fine on an
earlier version of troff.
I have two main problems:
- For the ASCII format, I'm getting a whole bunch of screwy
error messages such as:
../../vsapi/truefiletypes.man:749: warning [p 10, 0.3i, div `3tbd18,5', 0.7i]:
cannot
adjust line
and the output has the 3m, 0m, 4m, etc characters spread around
- The PDF output is generally formatting okay, but there is always
a big space after the "fi" string -- so it looks like "fi lename"
and "modifi ed"
I thought as a first step, I'd see if anyone else is successfully
building manpages. And, of course, if anyone knows what my problem
is, I'll be very grateful...
thanks much,
meg
