Re: [Man-db-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] src/tests: Fix man-9 depending on --override_dir

[Mihail Konev]

The man() in src/man.c calls sort_candidates(), so -w option sorts
its output before displaying.
As value of override_dir affects paths to pages used in the test,
it also affects the output which is being checked.

Sort outputs before comparing them.

v2: sort both outputs, not only the reference one
