Package: xbase-clients Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 Severity: minor File: /usr/X11R6/bin/xman
Long one line message lines in "warnShell" will go off the edge of the screen leaving the user no way to see them in full. Nor does there seem a way to use cut and paste to save what it says. P.S., these days there is a warnShell, no three, for every man page I try, telling me to clear the [something]. Ah, $ which xman|xargs strings|egrep -i compres\|wrong ... Something went wrong in retrieving the %s uncompressed manual page try cleaning up /tmp. Any thing special in /tmp? Mention it. Maybe /tmp Xman creates temporary files in /tmp for all unformatted man pages and all apropos searches. OK, but I don't see any of those files there. Starting xman as root didn't help either.
