Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated man-pages-overrides package that fixes various bugs is now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The man-pages-overrides package contains a collection of manual (man) pages to
complement other packages or update those contained therein.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Previously, the Japanese version of the rpm(8) manual page contained multiple
  typos. This update corrects those typos. (BZ#510019)
  
• Previously, the manual page for the /usr/sbin/named_sdb binary was incorrectly
  named named-sdb(8). This update changes the name of the manual page to the
  correct named_sdb(8). (BZ#647113)
  
• Previously, the ethtool(8) manual page incorrectly referenced the "--blink"
  option in SYNOPSIS. The option has been modified to the correct "--identify"
  option. (BZ#678326)
  
• Previously, the dig(1) manual page did not document the exit codes of the dig
  tool. With this update, the exit codes are now described on the manual page.
  (BZ#703440)
  
• Previously, the lsvio(8) manual page did not document the "-D" and "-v"
  options. With this update, the options are now described on the manual page.
  (BZ#766784)
  
• Previously, multiple ecryptfs manual pages contained an incorrect link in the
  SEE ALSO section. With this update, the link is fixed. (BZ#731938)
  
• Previously, the man-pages-overrides package incorrectly overrode the
  mount.cifs(8) manual page from both the samba3x-client and samba-client
  packages. With this update, only the mount.cifs(8) manual page from the
  samba-client package is overridden. (BZ#769375)
  
• This update removes multiple manual pages from the original package.
  (BZ#749319)
  

All users of man-pages-overrides are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which fixes these bugs.
