Any update?

No.

comment:3 Changed 17 years ago by ebgssth@…

confirmed that 1.6 installer installs ggzip-ed port man page. so the fix of this would be compress port.1 during make install

Ok, to explain this a bit: The installers in .dmg are created using port dmg MacPorts. As the port system always gzips man pages after destroot, they are also gzipped here. make install does not gzip the man pages, as there is no such code in the Makefile. So this needs to be added to the Makefile in order to avoid duplication.

Also, future installations should remove non-gzipped versions of `${prefix}/share/man/port.1' and similar for porthier.7, portfile.7 etc.

Added compression of man pages in r35812.

The postflight script for the disk images will also need an update to remove old uncompressed man pages.
