Konqueror stopped opening manpages (solved)

Since, errr... I don't know... but currently typing "man: something" in the address bar returns a not found error message.
This happens with every account on the system, and since "man: something" works just fine under konsole, it shouldn't be a broken MANPATH.
Any ideas?

not reproducable here, try to reinstall kde perhaps pacman removed some files while upgrading.

I tested it, and found the solution.
There should be NO spaces in that address;
example

man:pacman

Thanks, Lone_Wolf, that way it works!
Pretty sure it was working before with spaces included, but anyway, this isn't important... flagging it as solved.

Do you have a space between "man:" and "something"? I'm unsure about man:, but with for example wp: you shouldn't use a space inbetween.

EDIT: Seems like I missed a post or two...

Indeed I had. It still works with a space there under konsole, but not under Konqueror anymore.
