Bug#2057: Man cron.daily
Package: man
Status: install ok installed
Priority: standard
Section: text
Maintainer: Alvar Bray <alvar@meiko.co.uk>
Version: 2.3.10
Revision: 5
The "man" script in cron.daily is as follows:
# expunge old catman pages which have not been read in a week
find /var/catman -type f -name '*[1-9nlop].gz' -atime +168 | xargs rm -f
# expunge old catman pages which are older than one month
find /var/catman -type f -name '*[1-9nlop].gz' -mtime +720 | xargs rm -f
exit 0
However, the man-page for "find" says:
-atime n
File was last accessed n*24 hours ago.
-mtime n
File's data was last modified n*24 hours ago.
The "168" and "720" should be "7" and "30", respectively.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they're not.
