Some packages like fakeroot install man pages to
/usr/share/man/{de,fr,pl,...}. In my opinion we don't need those man
pages and thus I would suggest that only /usr/share/man[0-8] should
exist.

This also allows us to simply our check for non-compressed man pages.

These are not non-standard locations.
They are the standard locations for non-english languages.

/usr/share/man/man[0-8] is the standard location for english manpages
(not /usr/share/man[0-8] as you say in the commit message), but your patch
gets that right.

FYI, this patch does not fix one standing issue with compressing manpages:
symlinks to manpages are not fixed to point to the compressed one.

Thanks,
Isaac Dunham

I don't mind those localized pages. We may not support it but I don't
want forbid it either.

The check is still flawed, there are still things like *.[0-9]pm and
*.[0.9]p. And as Isaac mentioned, we need to deal with symlinks too.

I wonder if we should look for an external tool to help us do the
compression.

I don't think we should error on

I have pushed a fix for symlinks and hardlinks and man pages found in
other sections and localized man pages.

http://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/abuild/commit/?id=fe2332d186cad4edc0a1b721ce657015a60c00f5

dosfstools-doc has symlinks
tcl-doc has hardlinks

It would be nice if someone could help me test it from abuild git.
There are some other improvements I'd like relatively soon so I'd like
tag a new abuild release.

Thanks!
