Comment 2 Tomas Mraz 2012-07-19 18:49:13 UTC

The page is available as 'man sslrand'.

Comment 3 Thom Carlin 2012-07-19 19:05:09 UTC

Confirmed.  Should the 'openssl' manpage "See Also" section be updated to reflect that?

Comment 4 Tomas Mraz 2012-07-19 19:46:24 UTC

It is renamed in the spec file during the build because they were conflicting with other manpage. But that is probably not true anymore.

In case of the openssl passwd manpage the conflict with regular passwd manpage still exists though.

But for RHEL-6 I'd probably say that patching the See Also in the openssl manpage is the most appropriate solution.
