in latest 1.5.18-1 man wont work


I downloaded today 1.5.18-1 and the man command wont work the error message is

$ man curl
Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd "/usr/share/man" && (echo ".pl 1100i"; /usr/bin/cat '/usr/sha
re/man/man1/curl.1'; echo ".\\\""; echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/b
in/nroff -c -mandoc | /usr/bin/less -isrR) exited with status 127.
No manual entry for curl


I even set MANPATH to "" with no difference.

what is interesting is that there is now a second copy of the man directory!

The usual at /usr/man and a separate and DIFFERENT one at /usr/share/man.
The later is different because it has a sh.stackdump file in it and seems to have been made today.


Anyway, I am running XP home edition...
