gaze and bash are similar. And the problem either is getting worse with
time, ie more pages affected, or I'm just finding more and more pages
with time that are affected.
Thanks,
Geoff
Martin Ruderer provided me with this solution.
Apparently I ended up with two files.
/usr/man/man1/tar.1.gz and /usr/man/man1/tar.1.gz.bz2
I deleted the tar.1.gz.bz2 and it worked, my only question is how was that file created to begin with. But that's not a big deal.
