p7zip man page gives wrong location for doc file

Reported by: TruePath (Peter Gerdes) Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Low Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc:
Port: p7zip

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

The 7z man page (man 7z) gives the following location for a doc file to consult for the -m option

/opt/local/share/doc/p7zip/DOC/MANUAL/switches/method.htm

However, the actual location of the doc file is

/opt/local/share/doc/p7zip/DOC/MANUAL/cmdline/switches/method.htm

I can't be sure this is a compilation problem and not an upstream problem but it kinda looks like it might be a failure of correct compilation switches so I figured it was worth submitting

Milestone: MacPorts 2.7.0

It is an upstream bug which has been reported 2 years ago: https://sourceforge.net/p/p7zip/bugs/211/

There doesn't appear to be any upstream development anymore. There are lots of unresolved bug reports.
