[X-Unix] missing man pages

[Juan Manuel Palacios]

	Just for the sake of confirmation, I'm running latest Panther  
(10.3.2), updated from Jaguar through "Archive & Install", and I do  
have the 'perror' man page:

$[juan at PowerBook: dports](215/0,0)-> find /usr/share/man -name  
"*perror*"
/usr/share/man/man3/ldap_perror.3
/usr/share/man/man3/longjmperror.3
/usr/share/man/man3/perror.3
/usr/share/man/man3/snmp_perror.3
/usr/share/man/man3/snmp_sess_perror.3
$[juan at PowerBook: dports](216/0,0)->

	You should note that I have the developer tools installed, so that's  
something which you might want to check on (honestly it's what I really  
think you should check). Also you could check your manpath: how are you  
setting it, through the environment variable $MANPATH or through the  
command manpath(1)? In any case make sure /usr/share/man is in your  
path. And lastly, the exact same errors you get by running 'makewhatis'  
occur here as well, so it's not something particular to your  
environment; however I have not investigated to find out what's causing  
them.

	Hope that helps. Regards,...
