Details

Description: The actual PKGBUILD of esmtp removes everything in pkg/usr/share, including not only the symlinks to man pages (such as sendmail etc: this was the purpose I guess), but also the man pages themselves (those of esmtp and esmtprc). Probably this was not a problem when it was configured with --mandir=/usr/man, but now the package does not include the man pages (and so also the links whic should be created in esmtp.install are not created).
In the tarball included, onyl the links in share are removed, while the actual man pages are left in their place.
Additional info:
* package version(s) esmtp 0.6.0-1
(application/octet-stream)    esmtp.tar.gz (1 KiB)

And now I see that in the esmtp.install the links point to the old path of the man pages (/usr/man). I attached a fixed esmtp.install
   esmtp.install (0.9 KiB)
