Description:
LESS_TERMCAP variables are not correctly followed as of groff 1.22.2 Additional info: * package version(s) groff 1.22.2-1 less 451-1 * config and/or log files etc. LESS_TERMCAPS I am using: http://ix.io/4jz Steps to reproduce: This sounds like it's only reproducable with a UTF-8 locale. 1) upgrade groff to 1.22.2-1 in [testing] 2) source the file linked above in a shell 3) run `man man` Note the colors are distinctly lacking. 4) now install core/groff (version 1.21-2 at this writing) 5) source the file linked above in a shell 6) run `man man` Note that there are colors. * possible cause I pulled the packages/groff branch from the core/extra git repository, and looked through the diff. The `site.tmac` file was removed from the 1.22.2-1 PKGBUILD and adding this back corrects this bug. I don't know what exactly this is going, but it seems that UTF-8 man page processing isn't completely right yet. |
This task depends upon
