10.5: View the new 'man' pages on upgraded systems
This command will give a list of the commands required to remove the old files: sudo find /usr/share/man -type f -exec test -e {}.gz \; -exec echo rm {} \;
If you are happy with the results, you can remove the "echo" to delete the files. I did just that on my machine and now I'm fine. Thanks for this hint. I was wondering why

Before you delete all the files, you can save them all in a tar archive:
sudo find /usr/share/man -exec test -e {}.gz \; -exec tar --absolute-names -rzvf ~/man.tgz {} \; I should note that I had no problems running this command without leading sudo, so you may wish to omit that. There might be a smarter way to first list all the files and then form the archive, but this only took 1 minute and 41 seconds. If you ever need to restore: tar xzf ~/man.tgz will put them all back. |
