| This package contains Linux man pages for sections | |
| 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7. Some more information is given in the | |
| `Announce' file. | |
| Install by copying to your favourite location. | |
| "make install" will just copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8]. | |
| "make" will move the pages from this package that are older than | |
| the already installed ones to a subdirectory `not_installed', | |
| then remove old versions (compressed or not), | |
| compress the pages, and copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8]. | |
| Note that you may have to remove preformatted pages. | |
| Note that sometimes these pages are duplicates of pages | |
| also distributed in other packages. This has been reported | |
| about dlclose.3, dlerror.3, dlopen.3, dlsym.3 (found in ld.so), | |
| about resolver.3, resolv.conf.5 (found in bind-utils), | |
| and about passwd.5, and mailaddr.7. Be careful not to | |
| overwrite more up-to-date versions. | |
| Reports on further duplicates are welcome. | |
| Formerly present and now removed duplicates: | |
| exports.5 (found in nfs-server-2.2*), | |
| fstab.5, nfs.5 (found in util-linux-2.12*), | |
| lilo.8, lilo.conf.5 (found in lilo-21.6*). | |
| Copyrights: These man pages come under various copyrights. | |
| All pages are freely distributable when the nroff source is included. | |
