* Groff 1.18.1 comes in with ANSI color support, enabled by default.ru2002-10-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In "nroff" mode, italic font renders as an underlined text, which makes it indistinguishable from the bold text on color monitors (cons25 terminal type), yet it requires the less(1)'s -R option. (Refer to the new grotty(1) manpage for details.) So turn off the color support for now (when generating catpages), until we figure out what do we do with this new feature. I have a patch for grotty(1) that tells it to use the "reverse video" attribute to render the italic font. Once this is accepted, we can turn color support back on (if there won't be any objections from the community).

* Do not install man(1) setuid ``man''.ru2002-01-152-66/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The catpaging and setuidness features of man(1) combined make it vulnerable to a number of security attacks. Specifically, it was possible to overwrite system catpages with arbitrarily contents by either setting up a symlink to a directory holding system catpages, or by writing custom -mdoc or -man groff(1) macro packages and setting up GROFF_TMAC_PATH in environment to point to them. (See PR below for details). This means man(1) can no longer create system catpages on a regular user's behalf. (It is still able to if the user has write permissions to the directory holding catpages, e.g., user's own manpages, or if the running user is ``root''.) To create and install catpages during ``make world'', please set MANBUILDCAT=YES in /etc/make.conf. To rebuild catpages on a weekly basis, please set weekly_catman_enable="YES" in /etc/periodic.conf.
