Title: C:B Help Plugin using Man Pages, can it follow symlinks?
Post by: Napoleon on April 26, 2014, 08:03:47 pm

[Ubuntu 13.10 CB13:12 source]

When looking up pthread_attr_setschedpolicy(3), 'Man/Html pages viewer' tells me there are two entries for it: pthread_attr_setschedpolicy.3 and pthread_attr_setschedpolicy.3posix.
When I click the .3 version, I get a page explaining it.  However when I click the .3posix version, I get a blank screen.

I looked into this and found that I have the .3posix file, but it has a symlink in it that points to man3/pthread_attr_getschedpolicy.3posix, which I do have.

It looks like the Help Plugin is not able to follow this link.  Is there something I need to do to have this work?

Cheers,
Nap.
