+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #850832 +++ Description of problem: The binutils package contains the windmc(1) manual page, but the windmc utility is not included in the package. This is confusing, because if a utility is documented, people expect it to be present in the system. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.34.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure the binutils package is installed: # yum install binutils 2. Access the manual page for the windmc utility: $ man windmc 3. Attempt to run the utility itself: $ windmc Actual results: I can see the manual page, but the utility is clearly not there: $ rpm -ql binutils | grep windmc /usr/share/man/man1/windmc.1.gz Expected results: Either the /usr/share/man/man1/windmc.1.gz file should be removed, or the windmc utility should be added to the package.
Verified for build binutils-2.23.52.0.1-54.el7.
