3255	"TeX Live 20100722 destroys the ""man"" executable!"	Jeremy Henty	blfs-book@…	"After ""make install"" the man executable is gone.

$ ls -ld -- /usr/bin/man
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Nov 18 21:32 /usr/bin/man -> ../texmf/doc/man

The culprit is the last part of the install-links target in texk/texlive/linked_scripts/Makefile.in .  This is clearly meant to create a link to a directory of man pages but because it is still in /usr/bin it overwrites /usr/bin/man !

I am rating this as a critical bug because actually breaks the system."	defect	closed	high		BOOK	SVN	critical	fixed
