Description Petr Menšík 2023-06-01 09:00:19 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2184023 +++

Description of problem:

BZ2096189 introduced a new no-aaaa option for resolv.conf which is not covered in the current overrides man page.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  man-pages-overrides-8.6.0.0-1.el8

Additional info:

This probably need duplicating into RHEL9 as well.

Proposed to upstream with some improvements after their review: https://marc.info/?l=linux-man&m=168131276816867&w=2

This is not documented even in rawhide, where that no-aaaa option is already implemented. But not documented.

Comment 1 Petr Menšík 2023-06-01 09:08:11 UTC

I have created bug #2182745, because I had no idea this is already partially implemented. Therefore it is there since Fedora 37

This should be implemented since glibc 2.36, according to:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2022-August/141193.html

Comment 2 Lukas Javorsky 2023-06-02 10:33:46 UTC

This is already part of the RHEL-9 via: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-454

Comment 3 Nikola Forró 2023-06-06 07:30:51 UTC

I assume it will be part of the next upstream release:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/commit/?id=391bf54cfd5daf93fc904959d062259065c94ffc

Comment 4 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:10:01 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
