} zshparam.1 says that setting manpath will change MANPATH and vice versa.
} If I change MANPATH, I don't see manpath getting changed.
It works for me:
schaefer[456] MANPATH=x:y:z ; echo $manpath 4.0.1-pre-4
x y z
} Worse, I used to set MANPATH in .zshenv. This results in manpath being
} empty.
What is it that you are (were) assigning to MANPATH when this happens?
} I've had to set up manpath instead of MANPATH now in my .zshenv, which
} means that I can't go back to v3.1.5 conveniently.
That statement confuses me a lot. MANPATH and manpath have been tied to
each other for a very long time; here's the oldest version of zsh I have
lying around:
zagzig% echo $VERSION
zsh 2.4.306 beta
zagzig% MANPATH=x:y:z ; echo $manpath
x y z
zagzig% manpath=(p d q); echo $MANPATH
p:d:q
