Can someone explain what this error might be:
nroff -man nasm.1 nasm.man
troff: fatal error: can't find macro file tty-char
*** Error code 1
Long-standing issue on the system I'm using -- it affects usage of manpages
(they don't work). Can't figure it out...

Hi Larry,
I seem to have this file:
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 5102 Nov 9 22:24 /usr/share/tmac/tty-char.tmac
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 1551 Nov 9 22:24 /usr/share/tmac/tty.tmac
This has been a problem for a long time - none of my manpages work at
all. I've tried reinstalling
Yes, I have actually. And this makes it even more mysterious. Check this out:
bash-2.05b# truss -o /tmp/truss.out man perl
Formatting page, please wait...troff: fatal error: can't find macro file
tty-char
Done.
bash-2.05b# cat /tmp/truss.out
bash-2.05b# truss -o /tmp/truss.out man sh
LOL
Check this out:
bash-2.05b# gdb man bash
