trouble using man

[dsidote]

Since upgrading to 10.2 I get an error when trying to search for a man page. The message I get looks like this:

Welcome to Darwin!
5:12pm sauron ~ % man perl
/usr/bin/man: illegal option -- C
man, version 1.1

usage: man [-adfhktw] [section] [-M path] [-P pager] [-S list]
[-m machine] [-p string] name ...

a : find all matching entries
d : print gobs of debugging information
f : same as whatis(1)
h : print this help message
k : same as apropos(1)
t : use troff to format pages for printing
w : print location of man page(s) that would be displayed

M path : set search path for manual pages to `path'
P pager : use program `pager' to display pages
S list : colon separated section list
m machine : search for alternate architecture man pages
p string : string tells which preprocessors to run
e - [n]eqn(1) p - pic(1) t - tbl(1)
g - grap(1) r - refer(1) v - vgrind(1)
5:12pm sauron ~ %

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks.

Yes, I worked this out a while back (I posted in these forums too, remember to search the forums...).
Type this:
sudo mv /sw/bin/man /sw/bin/man.old

and type your password.

Fink's man doesn't work in 10.2, so if you rename fink's man, the regular man will be used instead.

Thanks wyvern. I will be sure to search the forums next time.
