hmmm, I must be missing something really obvious here, but can't find what it is. In OS X, the gentoo-specific man-pages are installed into /usr/lib/portage/man:
Code:
% ll /usr/lib/portage/man
total 176k
-rw-r--r--    1 root         3.1k Jul 13 10:45 cvs.eclass.5

-rw-r--r--    1 root         2.3k Jul 13 10:45 vim.eclass.5

So I added this directory to my $manpath:
Code:
% echo $MANPATH
/sw/share/man:/Users/pindar/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/local/teTeX/man:/usr/lib/portage/man:/usr/X11R6/man

And yet, the man-pages are not found:
Code:
% man emerge
No manual entry for emerge

Any ideas where I'm missing something?
Thanks!

Yes, that is an established problem with Gentoo for MacOS. I don't know if a bug has been started. I might have started one, but I forget. Its probable that no bug exists. I'm sitting on the sidewalk mooching off of someones wifi connection and my legs and feet are falling asleep so I don't really want to take the time to check. Hopefully somedone (maybe myself, although I doubt it) will get around to fixing this soon. Thanks for remninding me of this. IF you can't find an already exisiting bug, please create one.

Someone must have fixed this; "man emerge" and friends now work on OS X.
