The regular expressions for _PLIST_AWK_*MAN* segments assume that
cat[1-9ln] pages end in .0 but packages like net/tnftp install
man/cat1/ftp.1.
Other examples are
man/cat1/elvis.1
man/cat8/sudo.8
man/cat1/ssh-keyscan.1
man/cat3/fltk.3
Is it okay if I change the end expression for the cat part to match to
[0-9] or maybe [0-9ln] ??
This would be for any regular expression matching
cat[1-9ln]/.*\.0$
to
cat[1-9ln]/.*\.[0-9ln]$
(I noticed this because I added a new awk segment for converting man/ to
${PKGMANDIR} in my PLISTs and I wanted to make sure that the MANZ still
worked.)
