Summary 0003444: pkgmap missing man page directory creation
Description The pkgmap for ncurses-5.7,REV=2009.01.12-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW is missing the following directories:

/opt/csw/share/man/man1
/opt/csw/share/man/man3
/opt/csw/share/man/man5
/opt/csw/share/man/man7

The problem is that if the directory does not exist, the required directory is made, but it ends up having the wrong owner/group/permissions. (Do an fresh install and notice the "<implied directory>" output during the pkgadd.)

So, if a package later on tries to add files into, say, man5 and that package has /opt/csw/share/man/man5 in its pkgmap with what I believe to be normal "0755 root bin" permissions, you get the following:

The following files are already installed on the system and are being
used by another package:
* /opt/csw/share/man/man5 <attribute change only>

which requires a y,n response.
Additional Information This was noticed on a fresh Solaris 10 install with the relevant OpenCSW steps:

pkgadd -d http://www.opencsw.org/pkg_get.pkg [^]
pkg-get install common
pkg-get install cswclassutils
pkg-get install gcc3corert
pkg-get install libiconv
pkg-get install ggettextrt
pkg-get install syslog_ng


ncurses is installed as part of the dependency fulfillment for syslog_ng.

The error that I mention does not actually come from the the syslog_ng package, but rather from CSWtcpwrap with is being installed to fulfill a dependency for syslog_ng.

The issue has been resolved in r3993 by changing the way pathes in GAR are included. A new package will be produced when the other outstanding bugs are fixed.

Fixed in package 5.7,REV=2009.03.31 and in GAR by CSWcommon pathes in cswproto
