I don't know about any standard reflecting [] usable only for optional arguments and without this I can hardly convince upstream that this change is worthwhile. note: there are other man pages using [] for non-optional arguments (for example man tee). Nor do I. Closing, since we don't have an authoritative source. |
Description of problem: """ SYNOPSIS ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase [file] printf "%s\n%s" "old wrapping passphrase" "new wrapping passphrase" | ecryptfs-rewrap- passphrase [file] - """ The description is wrong, because the ``file'' is necessary to be present in the command line, otherwise: May 14 05:01:55 hp-ml370g4-01 ecryptfs-insert-wrapped-passphrase-into-keyring: Error attempting to open [-] for reading Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ecryptfs-utils-75-1.el5 Expected results: Remove '[' and ']' around ``file'', add them to ``-''. It's probably the same for all ecryptfs-*wrap* man pages.
