When I tried to verify what you said about Xcode, my Xcode here found a nicely formatted printf(3) man page on my hard disk at This file had been installed by the package DevDocumentation.pkg from the xcode disk (latest version: xcode_2.4.1 from last October), together with html versions of the other 7360 or so man pages. Then I downloaded and installed the recent 245 MB ADC Reference Library update "apr07_adc_reflib_update.dmg" from the Apple developer connection. After this update, all my man pages in /Developer have disappeared! Erased, gone. The corresponding link in the index pages (and this is what Xcode is now finding) now points to a page on Apple's web site: <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/printf.3.html> This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
