            Bug ID: 210927
           Summary: x11/yelp does not display man pages, Illegal option -Z
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: gnome at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rvernica at gmail.com

yelp can display man pages if used like this:

  yelp man:ls

When I run this, I get:

  > yelp man:ls

  (yelp:5006): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: remote volume monitor with
dbus name org.gtk.vfs.HalVolumeMonitor is not supported
  Illegal option -Z
  Usage:
   man [-adho] [-t | -w] [-M manpath] [-P pager] [-S mansect]
       [-m arch[:machine]] [-p [eprtv]] [mansect] page [...]
   man -f page [...] -- Emulates whatis(1)
   man -k page [...] -- Emulates apropos(1)

It seems that an extra "-Z" argument is passed to "man". The resulting yelp
window that pops up shows a white page with just "()".

Version info:

  > pkg info yelp
  yelp-3.18.1
  Name           : yelp
  Version        : 3.18.1
