A few problems with an upgrade to 2.02,
1) When I run updatedb, I get an error that it doesn't like the file
"pagefile.sys" (who would!),
and after a long while, "empty database not created"
2) "nice updatedb" says
"nice: updatedb: No such file or directory"
3) I installed all the man pages, but no "man" command?
4) I am surprised that the man.1 pages are all in nroff;
but no nroff is a part of the standard distribution. How about .hlp or
.html or .rtf as a more portable and modern format?
Thanks,
Gregory Guthrie
