>Description:
If I try to build in a directory containing manual pages but no program
(e.g. src/share/man/man1), GROFF doesn't get set. This causes builds to
fail. This doesn't happen if USETOOLS is on, because then <bsd.own.mk>
defines GROFF.
>How-To-Repeat:
Sat Nov 17 15:57:46 GMT 2001
# cd /usr/src/share/man/man1
# make
-Tascii -mtty-char -mandoc /usr/src/share/man/man1/cd.1 > cd.cat1
-Tascii: not found
*** Error code 127
Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/src/share/man/man1
>Fix:
It looks like GROFF is defined in <bsd.sys.mk>, but <bsd.man.mk> doesn't
include it. Maybe it should.
