Description

On Slackware64-14.2, lttng list -h fails with:

# lttng list -h
man: unrecognized option '--manpath'
man, version 1.6g

usage: man [-adfhktwW] [section] [-M path] [-P pager] [-S list]
    [-m system] [-p string] name ...
(...)

Running it with strace shows it is attempting:

execve("/usr/bin/man", ["man", "--manpath", "/usr/local/share/man", "1", "lttng-list"], [/* 36 vars */]) = 0

Checking the manual page for man, the command should be:

man -M /usr/local/share/man 1 lttng-list

Both Linux and FreeBSD supports -M and do not list --manpath.

Attached patch was successfully tested on Slackware64.
