Description Paul DeStefano 2013-02-04 00:33:10 UTC
Description of problem:
mandb complains of missing .3gl files in /usr/share/man/man3/ for gl* manual pages.  It also doesn't like .3G.gz files, either.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1-2.20121009.fc18

How reproducible:
Occurred immediately after upgrade to F18.  I'm not sure how long it will persist.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mandb --test
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
...
mandb: can't open /usr/share/man/man3/glGetTexLevelParameter.3gl: No such file or directory
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man3/glGetTexLevelParameteriv.3G.gz: bad symlink or ROFF `.so' request

Wow, thanks!  I don't think it has propagated on updates-testing, yet.

But, I will try again later.

Comment 4 Paul DeStefano 2013-02-05 09:17:59 UTC
Hmm, this is odd.  As far as I know, this has never happened before.  I see it, but cannot yum update.
