man-1.6e-5mdv2008.0 RPM for i586

From Mandriva 2008.0 for i586 / media / main / release

The man package includes three tools for finding information and/or
documentation about your Linux system: man, apropos and whatis. The man
system formats and displays on-line manual pages about commands or
functions on your system. Apropos searches the whatis database
(containing short descriptions of system commands) for a string. Whatis
searches its own database for a complete word.

The man package should be installed on your system because it is the
primary way for find documentation on a Mandriva Linux system.

    and create whatis files for orphaned languages
  - fix for the interface translations, and set a better value
    for default NLSPATH (bug #25806)
  - fixed makewhatis to not overwrite LANG value (reported by UTUMI Hirosi)
  - added MAN_NAME and MAN_DESCRIPTION environement variables to makewhatis
