confNO_MAN_BUILD
Prevent formatting of manuals Build macro
Ordinarily, when you build sendmail, the unformatted manual pages (those that end in a digit other than zero) are formatted and overwrite the corresponding file that ends in zero. When you run Build it looks like this:
groff -Tascii -man sendmail.8 > sendmail.0 || cp sendmail.0.dist sendmail.0
If you don’t want to format the manual pages (that is,
to leave the zero-suffixed files untouched), you can
define this confNO_MAN_BUILD macro. Then, when you
run Build, the preceding
formatting line (or lines) will be missing.
