As an option, the user may set the environment variable LOCALRES to name a file which is to be used instead of /etc/resolv.conf (LOCALRES is specific to the dig resolver and is not referenced by the standard resolver). If the LOCALRES variable is not set or the specified file is not readable, then /etc/resolv.conf will be used. How are you reading the manpage? Perhaps the .Ns Ev trick works for displaying manpages in my console terminal, but viewing the manpage in other formats (PS maybe?) makes the problem more obvious? I agree that Ns looks strange there, but I can't reproduce the lack of space between "LOCALRES" and "is" in either CURRENT (at home) or STABLE (at freefall.freebsd.org and ref4.freebsd.org). - Giorgos State Changed From-To: open->closed Submitter has tracked this down to a local manpage. The /usr/share manpage of dig is fine. Thanks for working patiently to track this down with me, and reporting your results. Keep the good work up :) Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->keramida |
The dig(1) man page seems to have some missing text. In the second paragraph of the "server" description, I see: (LOCALRESis specific ... resolver and is not referenced by the) ? ? Fix: I have isolated the problem to these lines of troff, but I can't suggest the fix(es): .Ns Ev (LOCALRES is specific to the .Ic dig resolver and is not referenced by the standard resolver). How-To-Repeat: man dig
