Upgraded to 9.0.3, No Man Pages

Rich Shepard wrote:

Somehow, when I installed 9.0.3 the man pages weren't installed. They're
in the source tree but not in /usr/local/pgsql/share/ so I cannot make a
symlink to /usr/share/man.

Might this be something in the 'make install' script?

I'll manually install them.

I don't think we ever researched how to install manual pages in all the
distributions. /share does make sense; not sure why that doesn't happen.

Bruce,

That's where they were installed with 9.0.1 and that's where I expected to
find them after upgrading to 9.0.3. No such luck.

Odd. How did you do the install? Via source?

Yep. For reasons the package maintainer and I could not figure out, the
SlackBuild.org package script failed to build 9.0.1 so I installed from the
source tarball. Did the same with 9.0.3: configure; make; make install.

When I went to check I found my source install of 9.0.3 did not install docs.
Comparing the GNUMakefiles from an 8.4 and 9.0.3 install shows that the docs
have been split out to the targets docs: and install-docs: and are no longer in
the targets all: and install:

Thanks for tracking this down, Adrian.
