Description Tim Clymo 2002-02-19 16:27:36 EST 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020206

Description of problem:
man-1.5j-2 - /usr/bin/apropos seems to have gained an "a" instead of a null
value for $aproposgrepopt2 at line 23.

The effect of this is that apropos (or man -k) prepends an "a" to the string it
greps for in whatis (ie "man -k foo" actually greps for "afoo" instead of "foo").

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.man -k foo
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  "foo: nothing appropriate"

Expected Results:  should have returned lines from whatis matching "foo"
