- cperciva 13y agoIf you define MAN1DIR then the man pages will be installed.
- pezz 13y agoThanks for this, I just updated the Arch AUR build to include them. FYI - the man pages still say version 1.3.0 :)
- malandrew 13y agoWhat about the MANPATH env var? Is that considered as well? Either way, `brew install spiped` fails on OSX if $MAN1DIR is set because brew works without sudo and all the directories in /usr/share/man are only writeable by root. Obviously not your problem, but just putting it out there. Is MAN1DIR a FreeBSD env var or is it used by other distros? I was bummed out that spiped was not in Red Hat's yum package registry. I wonder if it's in the other distro registries.
- cperciva 13y agoMANPATH is a directive to man to tell it where to look for man pages. Typically it includes multiple directories. MAN1DIR is just a variable name I picked. I was assuming that most people would be installing this code via some sort of packaging system which could set that variable appropriately.
- bbatsell 13y agoFYI, I just submitted a pull request fixing this in homebrew. They're usually pretty good about merging PRs fast, but if you'd like your manpage right now, you can run: brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bbatsell/homebrew/spiped-1.3.1-fixmanpage/Library/Formula/spiped.rb Edit: 1 hour later, it's already been merged. brew update;brew reinstall spiped
- malandrew 13y agoMost awesome.
