Description of problem: Need a '6x' section for man pages Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): man-pages-2.21-1.noarch How reproducible: Always The bsd-games and xscreensaver-extras packages both contain a 'worms.6' man page. To prevent a file conflict when installing both packages, it would be nice to put the xscreensaver-extras pages in a '6x' section instead section '6'. See bugs #205796 for the xscreensaver-extras bug report discussing this.
To be clear, I'm just asking that this package create and own a new /usr/share/man/man6x directory.
man package has man6x in section list: MANSECT 1:1p:8:2:3:3p:4:5:6:7:9:0p:n:l:p:o:1x:2x:3x:4x:5x:6x:7x:8x there will not be any problem with man pages in 6x section. man-pages package have no man page which belongs to 6x (6x should be used by xorg packages), so there is no need to have /usr/share/man/man6x directory in this package.
You're right, man-pages isn't the right place to put this. Ownership of /usr/share/man/man6x should probably be done in the filesystem package instead. I'll refile this bug against the filesystem package.
