-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This was discussed earlier but in a different context: man -k tries to execute a program called /unsafe/ when invoked with an argument containing spaces. Example: man -k 'a b' sh: /unsafe/: No such file or directory Error executing formatting or display command. System command /unsafe/ exited with status 32512. Execute attempt of /unsafe/ and segfault confirmed on Fedora Core 2 and Fedora Core 3. No issues on Debian Sarge. No issues on RH 7.3 and RHES3. The earlier reports about /unsafe/ used a different vector as far as I can see. Apologies if it's the same bug.
