Is there a preferred method in oe-core for dealing with man pages
that conflict due to differences in multilib pathing.
For example an application lives in /usr/lib/foo/bar for one abi but
/usr/lib64/foo/bar in another, and
that kind of information is encoded in to the man pages.
Some things i have seen done in the past, is move the man pages
under
/user/share/man/${PN} or
use something like mutlilib script to deal with it.
I am just curious if there is a canned, preferred way the project
handles those or wants to handle them?
xinit, xserver-org, and groff each exhibit these issues.
Could we just put a placeholder into the man page so they'd be
identical? Multiple copies seems like overkill for something as
trivial...
A placeholder like:
/usr/<system libdir>/sys.startxrc
from
/usr/lib64/sys.startxrc
Cheers,
