Create a recipe for mandoc. (probably a hard task)
Haiku is a UNIX-like open source operating system that provides a tool called haikuporter to build 3rd party open source software.
A recipe in Haiku is a text file that the haikuporter tool reads in order to build open source software and create packages for it. The collection of recipes that may be built by haikuporter is called HaikuPorts.
If you are new to Haiku then you should probably start with these tasks:
The goal of this task is to write a recipe for mandoc.
You will need to look by yourself what mandoc is, where the sources are, how to fix them to meet Haiku's policy regarding the systems settings.
In other words, this task is for experienced C/C++ developers familiar with the find_directory() function and having already written several recipes.
Important: please read the generic instructions for "recipe" tasks, as we have a lot of these: https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/GoogleCodeInTaskRecipe
