Building groff-1.22.2 from the release tarball on OpenBSD, i do have the two lines Making gropdf.n from gropdf.man Making pdfmom.n from pdfmom.man in the build log. So i still suspect that the Gentoo groff-1.22.2.ebuild script somehow uses the groff build system incorrectly. > My point is that groff has fixed the bug in its git sometime since > 1.22.2 was released. > > I didn't bisect to determine what the fix is, and therefore what a > useful patch for 1.22.2 would be. I strongly suspect that this analysis is somehow flawed, though lacking detail, it's hard to say in which way. Do you maybe compare a groff-1.22.2.ebuild controlled build of the groff-1.22.2 release with a vanilla build from a git master HEAD checkout, the latter *not* using groff-1.22.2.ebuild? Yours, Ingo
