From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204 Description of problem: apropos is broken in man-1.5j-2 (a rawhide package, but I believe it was also broken in standard 7.2). The problem is setting aproposgrepopt2='a' at the top of the script--this grepopt needs to be empty because it is pasted before the token we are searching for (eg, 'apropos man' will grep for 'aman' with this option set as is. the whatisgrepopt2 is fine--the '^' option gets pasted before the token and we grep for '^man' which does what we want. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. apropos ncftp 2. 3. Actual Results: You get no results (unless you have a program called 'ancftp' on your machine). Expected Results: Should have returned a list of all man pages with 'ncftp' in them. Additional info:
Thanks, fixed in 1.5j-3
