Man sed, sendmail, cvs... I can't remember all of them, but there are many man pages that just abruptly end instead of finishing, and stayed that way after I reinstalled the packages.
This task depends upon

Hmm, I cannot reproduce here. My sed and cvs manpages are complete.

export MANPAGER="col -b | vim -c 'set ft=man nonu nomod nolist' -" was the problem, I forgot I reported this. If you use that as your manpager, certain man pages get cut off at random places. I apologize for the bug report.
