This was so till Sep 12th, 2022 only.  After that perl man pages were
moved to the 3perl section, including the Symbol man page.  Please see
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/9203

Now you can still find some perl man pages in section 3 (if such a
package was not rebuilt after Sep 12th) or section 3perl (if it was
rebuilt).

If you see the Symbol man page in section 3, then simply update your
runtime/perl-534 and/or runtime/perl-536 packages.

Please update.  Currently the directory contains 2k+ man pages (while
section 3 still contains ca 850 perl man pages).


HTH.

Maybe I should add that on Illumos the files are:

https://illumos.org/man/3/all

and 

https://illumos.org/man/3PERL/all

[oi-dev] perl and Symbol.3 manpage

2023-02-11 Thread s...@pandora.be


I believe that the runtime/perl-534 and package runtime/perl-536 package a file

/usr/share/man/man3/Symbol.3

This can be verified with : pkg contents runtime/perl-534 | grep Symbol

Should this file be in man3 ? 

There also exists a /usr/share/man/man3perl

But that directory seems to be empty for me.

I'm not sure what the OpenIndiana conventions are for putting files in man3/

Perhaps on older versions of OpenIndiana the file was only in 
usr/perl5/5.xx/man/man3/Symbol.3

where 5.xx is the release like 5.34 and 5.36  without linking or copying into 
/usr/share/man/man3 itself.


I'm asking because a different software is also trying to put a file Symbol.3 
in /usr/share/man/man3,
and I've noticed that since  a while it complains about the Perl file in man3.

Regards,
David Stes
