Thanks to all who suggested changing the LANG= entry in /etc/sysconfig/i18n. My laptop had messed up man pages but both of my machines at home had no problems. I have been scratching my head over that for while now tho, mostly, I'd just accepted it. I changed the one entry to LANG="en_US" and the problem with weird characters in the man page went away. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
