Description Josselin Mouette 2006-04-30 10:21:31 UTC 
In yelp, the bzcmp(1) manual page appears empty. The manual page itself looks like this:
12:20 joss@utena ~ > zcat /usr/share/man/man1/bzcmp.1.gz
.so man1/bzdiff.1

When directly invoking the bzdiff(1) manual page, it renders fine.

Workaround in HEAD.  Actual inclusion would be a pain...

        * src/yelp-man-parser.c: (macro_reference_handler):
        When a man page uses the .so macro to include another file, just
        provide a link to the file;  Only works for man pages that have
        .so as the first and only macro; sort of fixes #340173
