Description
After installing the package desktop/office/libreoffice on one of my systems, I got this peculiar behavior:
$ man -l cat No manual entry for cat $ env | grep MANPATH MANPATH=::
This environment setting seems to originate with the file /etc/profile.d/modules.sh that is sourced by every login shell, and contains these lines:
MANPATH='::' export MANPATH
Setting the manual path variable to two colons seems to confuse the man command. What is the script attempting to do? It's delivered in the package/environment-modules package, by the way.
