Hi,
just as by product of looking why mc had a unusable man page,
and why u2d was making me crazy...
these are the other broken pages on my system, that look as
upstream bugs.
$ grep ROFF mandb.log
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/bind9-config.1.gz: bad symlink or
ROFF `.so' request
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/mysqltest_embedded.1.gz: bad symlink
or ROFF `.so' request
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_client_test_embedded.1.gz: bad

$ cygcheck -f /usr/share/man/man1/bind9-config.1.gz
bind-utils-9.9.5-3
$ gzip -cd /usr/share/man/man1/bind9-config.1.gz
.so isc-config.sh.1
but there is no isc-config.sh.1 page in any cygwin package
$ cygcheck -f /usr/share/man/man1/mysqltest_embedded.1.gz
mysql-5.5.35-1
$ gzip -cd /usr/share/man/man1/mysqltest_embedded.1.gz
.so man-gpl-tmp2/mysqltest.1
$ gzip -cd /usr/share/man/man1/mysqltest_embedded.1.gz
.so man-gpl-tmp2/mysqltest.1
but the file is located on /usr/share/man/man1/mysqltest.1.gz
$ cygcheck -f /usr/share/man/man1/xmond.1.gz
xmon-1.5.6-3
$ gzip -cd /usr/share/man/man1/xmond.1.gz
.so man1/xmonui.1x
so there is an extra "x" as the page is
/usr/share/man/man1/xmonui.1.gz
Regards
Marco
