Comment 1 Neal Gompa 2020-10-24 03:24:14 UTC

I don't understand what this bug report is about? There's no information...

Comment 2 Dmitry Iskhakov 2020-10-28 12:19:03 UTC

In my case this warning message appears when I use grep on man pages.

For example:

spinl0ck >> [~]$ man syscalls | grep -E '(time|date|clock)'
troff: /usr/share/groff/1.22.4/tmac/troffrc:53: warning: can't find macro file 'pdfpic.tmac'

File troffrc includes a directive "do mso pdfpic.tmac", but the file pdfpic.tmac does not exist in the directory.

Fedora 33 Workstation.

The pdfpic.tmac file is contained in package groff, by default Fedora contains the groff-base package.

Comment 4 William Shotts 2020-10-29 14:33:58 UTC

You can see this problem when you perform for example 'man ls > /dev/null' and view the error messages. Also the resulting man page contains lines that are incorrectly wrapped.

Comment 6 Chris Murphy 2020-11-02 21:03:02 UTC

Is the solution to add macro file 'pdfpic.tmac' to groff-base?

Comment 7 Nikola Forró 2020-11-03 11:10:27 UTC

> Is the solution to add macro file 'pdfpic.tmac' to groff-base?

Yes, the file was added to troffrc in 1.22.4 [1], so it needs to be in groff-base now.
