translated manual pages in UTF-8 encoding (e.g., Shadow, already dealt
with), or manual pages in languages not in the table. Not all BLFS packages

the wrong encoding, please remove or convert it as needed, and report this

have been audited for conformance with the requirements put in LFS (the
large majority have been checked, and fixes placed in the book for packages
known to install non-conforming manual pages). If you find a manual page
installed by any of BLFS packages that is obviously in the wrong encoding,
please remove or convert it as needed, and report this to BLFS team as a
bug.</para>
<para>You can easily check your system for any non-conforming manual pages
by copying the following short shell script to some accessible location,
<screen><literal>#!/bin/sh
# Begin checkman.sh
# Usage: find /usr/share/man -type f | xargs checkman.sh
for a in "$@"
do
# echo "Checking $a..."
# Pure-ASCII manual page (possibly except comments) is OK
grep -v '.\\"' "$a" | iconv -f US-ASCII -t US-ASCII >/dev/null 2>&amp;1 &amp;&amp; continue
# Non-UTF-8 manual page is OK
iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-8 "$a" >/dev/null 2>&amp;1 || continue
# If we got here, we found UTF-8 manual page, bad.
echo "UTF-8 manual page: $a" >&amp;2
done
# End checkman.sh
</literal></screen>
and then issuing the following command (modify the command below if the
<command>checkman.sh</command> script is not in your <envar>PATH</envar>
environment variable):</para>
<screen><userinput>find /usr/share/man -type f | xargs checkman.sh</userinput></screen>
<para>Note that if you have manual pages installed in any location other
than <filename class='directory'>/usr/share/man</filename> (e.g.,
<filename class='directory'>/usr/local/share/man</filename>), you must
modify the above command to include this additional location.</para>
