graphviz installs /usr/share/man/man1/dot2gxl.1 as a symlink to gv2gxl.1, but the correct target would be gv2gxl.1.gz (note the .gz at the end).

package version: graphviz 2.42.2-2

What's strange is that graphviz has a bunch of symlinks under /usr/share/man/man1 and that's the only one that didn't get picked up by makepkg's gzipping of man pages:

circo.1 -> dot.1
dot2gxl.1 -> gv2gxl.1
fdp.1 -> dot.1
gv2gml.1 -> gml2gv.1
gv2gxl.1 -> gxl2gv.1
gxl2dot.1 -> gxl2gv.1
neato.1 -> dot.1
sfdp.1 -> dot.1
twopi.1 -> dot.1

I guess it's because dot2gxl.1 is a symlink to a symlink instead of to a regular file.
