Hi,
This is probably a specific debian problem, but sending it to the grass-dev list as well, just in case.
g.manual fails on debian since the directory settings are wrong.
In g.manual there is
GRASS_DOC_BASE="$GISBASE"
and html and man pages are looked for under:
$GRASS_DOC_BASE"/docs/html/$1.html
and
$GRASS_DOC_BASE"/man/man1/$1.1
However, in debian/grass-doc.install there are the following lines, installing the docs into more LFS-compliant (I assume) directories:
usr/lib/grass/docs/html usr/share/doc/grass-doc
usr/lib/grass/man/man1 usr/share/man
Thus g.manual fails.
So, should this be changed directly in the GRASS tree, or is this a debian patch issue ?

Only the Debian patch should be changed.
