hi,
i often come up with this error when attempting to install man pages that i
don't know how to fix:
--cut here--
friction:~/icmpinfo-1.11# grep man1 *
DOC:   chmod 4555 icmpinfo. Copy icmpinfo.man to your MANPATH/man1/icmpinfo.1
README:   chmod 4555 icmpinfo. Copy icmpinfo.man to your
MANPATH/man1/icmpinfo.1
friction:~/icmpinfo-1.11# cp icmpinfo.man /usr/local/man/man1/icmpinfo.1
friction:~/icmpinfo-1.11# man icmpinfo
man: Formatting manual page...
groff: can't find `DESC' file
groff:fatal error: invalid device `ascii'
friction:~/icmpinfo-1.11#
--cut here--
did i forget to do something? :-\
thanks a lot,
  - a
