I looked at the output of "equery files --filter=man openssl" and |
| 7 |
noticed that while the openssl package on my system contained *some* |
| 8 |
manpages, it certainly didn't contain a manpage for openssl(1). Since I |
| 9 |
didn't have any doc-like USE flags specified for the openssl package, I |
| 10 |
took a look at the contents of the openssl tarball. |

It looks like some of documentation is in perl's plain-old-documentation |
| 13 |
format under doc/apps/ . If you extract the tarball, you can view what |
| 14 |
looks like an openssl(1) manpage with |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
perldoc /path/to/tarball/doc/apps/openssl.pod |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
This documentation certainly seems like it ought to installed along with |
| 19 |
the openssl manpages. Does anyone know if it's been excluded |
| 20 |
purposefully? (If not, Jorge, it might be a good idea to submit a bug |
| 21 |
about it.) |
