There are only two testsuite failures when running make check on Solaris
11.3 for dejagnu 1.6.3-rc1:
FAIL: dejagnu help selects dejagnu(1) manpage
FAIL: dejagnu help help selects dejagnu-help(1) manpage
They are from testsuite/launcher.all/help.exp, but unfortunately
launcher.log gives no further information but the FAILs.
With runtest -v, I find
Spawning "env MANPAGER=echo /vol/src/gnu/dejagnu/dejagnu-1.6.3-rc1/dejagnu help
-v" ...
FAIL: dejagnu help selects dejagnu(1) manpage
Running the above command manually yields
Forwarding to man "/vol/src/gnu/dejagnu/dejagnu-1.6.3-rc1/doc/dejagnu.1"
No manual entry for /vol/src/gnu/dejagnu/dejagnu-1.6.3-rc1/doc/dejagnu.1.
which is no wonder: Solaris man doesn't support
man <filename>
at all and there's no equivalent. The only way seems to have the
regular directory structure with .../man/man1, then run man -M .../man
dejagnu.
Besides, Solaris man doesn't support MANPAGER either, only PAGER.
