CVS commit: src/usr.sbin/makemandb



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   abhinav
Date:           Sat Dec 17 17:04:38 UTC 2016

Modified Files:
        src/usr.sbin/makemandb: makemandb.c

Log Message:
Don't ignore symlinks.
There can be symlinks which are pointing to man pages not installed in
one of the _default locations mentioned in man.conf or MANPATH. For example
there are man pages in /usr/pkg/man which are symlinked to pages in
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/man. If we ignore symlinks, we would not be able to
index such pages installed outside the default set of directories.

(Also, the symlink test was incorecct, so we never noticed this issue)

Ok christos@, wiz@
