Built from source and tested, everything is great. -- Boyuan Yang signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Did I miss something? What version of man-db do you have? You'll need 2.7.6.1-2. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org]

However I am still a bit confused about the auto-detection of languages by man-db according to file path. I installed the latest packages (man-db and groff-base), but "man man" under a Chinese locale (zh_CN.UTF-8) does not load the zh.tmac file unless I modify it and add a ".mso zh.tmac" explicitly into the man page file. Did I miss something? Thanks, Boyuan Yang signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Thanks. Upload on its way, and I also uploaded man-db with a cherry-pick of http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/man-db.git/commit/?id=d450d4c2d3c09a629ef95d02d250a6cb290764ca so that the macro file is loaded automatically. Even to my non-Chinese-reader's eye it looks much better now! -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org]
