This was only the case for ocserv.8.

Is there something that we could suggest to upstream autogen to fix for the manpages to be generated properly for freebsd as well? Is the .NOP sequence the only thing? About bash, is that intentional or just happens to use a bashism with /bin/sh in the shebang? Thank you for the freebsd port. If you think there patches which need to be applied to ocserv code to simplify that port let me know. regards, Nikos
