OK, Lucien explained to me that the manpages are going to be left on the
locker(s). This is fine with me, as long as the change is documented. I
can live with that... However, the x11r3 and x11r5 lockers do not have
"man" subdirs. Can someone please fix that? Thanks.
I just noticed something else, as well. In my .evironment, I set up my own
MANPATH, but since the MANPATH has changed in this release, I was losing, so
I modified my MANPATH to be ${MANPATH}:blah:blah:blah... but now if I source
.environment again, my MANPATH gets huge. It seems what is needed is perhaps
something analogous to "athena_path" that people can use in setting up their
own paths... maybe ATHENA_MANPATH? Except then we've got yet another env-var.
I guess athena_manpath could be a shell var, though...
