Re: Bug#353381: ITP: freebsd-manpages -- Manual pages for a GNU/kFreeBSD system
Sorry to change the topic, but looking at some of the manpages in the
"manpages" package,
and some of the pages in the "manpages-dev" causes me no notice some pages
that look like they probably should be in a different package.
ld-linux(8)
ld-linux.so(8)
These probably belong in libc6 which appears to be the provider of
ld-linux.so
sync(8)
This should be deleted. Coreutils (the provider of the sync utility)
provides sync(1) for that utility.
tzselect(8)
This should be removed. it duplicates tzslect(1) (which i presume is
provided by the package providing tzselect)
ksoftirqd(9)
I'm pretty sure this does not belong in the manpage package.
As for manpages-dev, it would seem more logical for the linux syscall
manpages to be part of linux, and the library documentation to be a part of
the libraries that provide the documented functions.

If somebody with more time can check on these and, if they are valid, file
bugs, I would appreciate it, as I do not have the time right now.
