Description of problem: French translation on mail manpage is not up-to-date. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. LANG=fr man mail 2. LANG=en man mail Actual results: French mail manpage differs (a lot) from English manpage. French manpage is not usable with the current version of mail. Expected results: French manpage should be up-to-date or, at least, remove or indicated as not up-to-date. Additional info: This is not Fedora specific. Maybe have to be reported upstream ?
I reassigne the bug to as I am the man-pages-fr maintainer (and french team coordinator by the way. The problem is simple : the last update of the the french mail man is from 2002, the english one is from 2007. The only thing I can do is to send a mail to the man translation coordinator to signal the obsolete translation. If you have an other idea.
At least, please remove the obsolete french translation or indicate it as obsolete. Having the English version of the man page doesn't matter. But having a obsolete man page is worst of all :-) Matthieu (starmad)
Please add this warning to the french translation to indicate it as obsolete : ----------------------------------------- Attention : La traduction de cette page de manuel pour "mail" est obsolète par rapport à la version actuelle de "mail". Pour avoir la dernière version de la page de manuel, veuillez utiliser la version anglaise. La version anglaise est disponible avec la commande suivante : LANG=en man mail ----------------------------------------- Thanks Matthieu (starmad)
I added the warning in the rawhide version of man-pages-fr for mail and for yum. Tell me if there are others outdated man pages by opening an other bug. Fixed in RAWHIDE.
