Ehm... 'whatis' is not 'whereis'. But leaving that aside, have a |
| 8 |
look at your MANPATH: echo $MANPATH. If it contains repeated |
| 9 |
entries, you may have to clean up /etc/env.d a bit: cd /etv/env.d/ |
| 10 |
and grep MANPATH *, prune the identical repetitions, then run |
| 11 |
env-update, re-login and run makewhatis. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Also have a look at /etc/man.conf. The NOAUTOPATH keyword is |
| 14 |
probably needed. Check with: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
# grep -v ^# /etc/man.conf |

To get rid of the multiple reports by 'whereis', apply the attached |
| 73 |
patch in an overlay to util-linux. It removes from the whereis |
| 74 |
search path the dirs that on my system are symlinks. |
