>Description:
/usr/bin/man emits a 'zcat: standard input is a terminal -- ignoring' when only formatted version of the manpage exists - coming from man_check_for_so. Just return there if `manpage' is an empty string.
>How-To-Repeat:
run catman; remove /usr/share/man/man1/man.1.gz; run man man:
procyon:yuri:~$ man -d man
-- Using architecture: amd64:amd64
-- Using pager: less -ins
-- Using manual sections: 1:1aout:8:2:3:n:4:5:6:7:9:l
-- Searching PATH for man directories
-- Adding /usr/share/man to manpath
-- Adding /usr/local/man to manpath
-- Adding default manpath entries
-- Adding /usr/share/openssl/man to manpath
-- Parsing config file: /usr/local/etc/man.d/perl5.12.4.conf
-- Adding /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/man to manpath
-- Adding /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/perl/man to manpath
-- Using manual path: /usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/share/openssl/man:/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/man:/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/perl/man
-- Using locale paths: en_US.UTF-8:en.UTF-8:.
-- Using standard page width
-- Searching for man
-- Found catpage /usr/share/man/cat1/man.1.gz
zcat: standard input is a terminal -- ignoring
-- Command: /usr/bin/zcat /usr/share/man/cat1/man.1.gz | less -ins
