>Environment:
System: NetBSD server.liman.net 6.1.5 NetBSD 6.1.5 (GENERIC) amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
        A comparison between the 6.1.2 and 6.1.5 man.tgz binary distribution
        files for amd64 makes it apparent that 6 files are omitted in the
        latter. I don't know the reason for the omission - it could be
        by design, but that seems unlikely since the corresponding utilities
        are still shipped in the base.tgz file. It is also possible that this
        problem pertains to more ports than amd64. I have not checked.

        The following commands should make the difference obvious:

        MANUAL FILES (only 6.1.2 has them)
        ----------------------------------

        server:/#tar ztf ./6.1.2-REL/amd64/binary/sets/man.tgz | egrep 'zpool|zdb|zfs'
        ./usr/share/man/html8/zdb.html
        ./usr/share/man/html8/zfs.html
        ./usr/share/man/html8/zpool.html
        ./usr/share/man/man8/zdb.8
        ./usr/share/man/man8/zfs.8
        ./usr/share/man/man8/zpool.8

        server:/#tar ztf ./6.1.5-REL/amd64/binary/sets/man.tgz | egrep 'zpool|zdb|zfs'
        <** NO OUTPUT - FILES ARE MISSING **>

        CORRESPONDING UTILITIES (both distros have them)
        ------------------------------------------------

        server:/#tar ztf ./6.1.2-REL/amd64/binary/sets/base.tgz | egrep 'bin/zpool|bin/zdb|bin/zfs'
        ./sbin/zfs
        ./sbin/zpool
        ./usr/sbin/zdb

        server:/#tar ztf ./6.1.5-REL/amd64/binary/sets/base.tgz | egrep 'bin/zpool|bin/zdb|bin/zfs'
        ./sbin/zfs
        ./sbin/zpool
        ./usr/sbin/zdb


>How-To-Repeat:
        Err ... well ... see above. :-)
>Fix:
        Add the missing files to the distribution. :-)

 This bug is due to our semi-bogus set sharing setup.  The man pages in
 question only get built when MKZFS=yes, and that's only the case for
 i386 and amd64.  Until somewhat recently, the man set has been identical
 for all ports, but this is no longer true.  By luck (picking amd64 as
 the port whose set gets shared) these man pages ended up in 6.1.2
 (possibly other releases -- I haven't checked).  I'll change things so
 that, for future releases, amd64 and i386 share a man set of their own,
 avoiding the problem described here.

 i think it would be better if the man set was once again made MI,
 like the contents of /usr/share are supposed to be.

 by this i mean, we should instead choose to install these man
 pages, regardless of MKZFS setting.
