As a check of the email archives might suggest, no this is not an issue with groff-1.17.2-1. You'll need to debug this a bit further. Or, if you prefer, grab the source of the current version instead and build it locally. But it sounds to me like this is a local configuration issue. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
