Continuing to process had the unintended effect that `man` failed to find
a matching manual page for {EMPTY LIST OF REQUESTED MANUAL PAGES}, and
exited with 1.
Prompted by a fish shell snippet that tried and failed to distinguish between
FreeBSD man (-p takes argument) and NetBSD man (-p no argument) by comparing
`man -p` exit code.
ok riastradh, logix (which also pointed out the manual page SYNOPSIS is
saying man -p should be used this way).
GCC_NO_FORMAT_TRUNCATION -Wno-format-truncation (GCC 7/8)
GCC_NO_STRINGOP_TRUNCATION -Wno-stringop-truncation (GCC 8)
GCC_NO_STRINGOP_OVERFLOW -Wno-stringop-overflow (GCC 8)
GCC_NO_CAST_FUNCTION_TYPE -Wno-cast-function-type (GCC 8)
use these to turn off warnings for most GCC-8 complaints. many
of these are false positives, most of the real bugs are already
commited, or are yet to come.
we plan to introduce versions of (some?) of these that use the
"-Wno-error=" form, which still displays the warnings but does
not make it an error, and all of the above will be re-considered
as either being "fix me" (warning still displayed) or "warning
is wrong."
Currently, `man -p` generates its output based on the value of the _default tag
in man.conf. However, man(1) modifies its search path based on the value of the
MANPATH variable and the list of directories specified via the -M option. In such
a case, `man -p` does not represent the correct search path. This commit intends
to fix this.
This change has the side effect that now the output of `man -p` will also include
the machine class specific subdirectories (such as man8/x86), while previously it
did not. The output would include subdirectories only for those machine classes
which are specified in the man.conf file.
Also, with this change, it is possible to run makemandb(8), by setting MANPATH
environment variable (e.g. env MANPATH=/usr/share/man makemandb).

search rules in man.conf or MANPATH, it must begin with "/", "./", or
"../". Simply testing whether it contains "/" is wrong, because it
breaks usage like "man 8 vax/boot".

"Be more permissive in interpreting man pages as filenames".
templates with fmtcheck(3) so annotate the printf that uses these
commands as safe with a __format_arg wrapper and drop
-Wno-format-nonliteral.
XXX: Using local wrapper for now, solving this in general would be
nice, but it raises namespace pollution issues.
XXX^2: catman(8) also uses manconf.c and uses _build and _crunch so it
can also benefit from this (but see above).
contain exactly one "%s". The previous description allowed any number
of "%s" in the _build command, but that does not match the actual
behaviour of either man(1) or catman(8).
- use err where appropriate.
- add machclass which should be x86 when i386 and amd64 and can be specified
in man.conf as:
_i386 x86
_amd64 x86
so that we can support merged pages. Nothing uses this yet.
