Hi, There is a strange problem when I try to use "man" as root. The first time I try "man" on a command, say "man ls" I get: recursive I/O operation, unit 1, file (echo ".pl 1100i"; /usr/bin/gunzip -c '/usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz'; echo ".\\\""; echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/gtbl | /usr/bin/nroff -c --legacy ISO-8859-1 -mandoc 2>/dev/null and the manual can be seen normally, after that it works without the error, but I suppose now it uses the formatted version in /var/cache. If I am not root the error is not seen but the formatted version in /var/cache is not created either, shouldn't "man" run suid man? or the cache dirs be writable to users? Instead if I use "man" on a non existing command, say "man nothing" I get: "cannot overwrite existing file, unit -17155555, file" and some random characters (the number changes too) and this seems to happen to both root and user. Is there something wrong? Ciao, GianPiero
