ok ok, I'll fix the nits :) |
cfdisk seems to have been removed. However, this removal is still incomplete. There are still things in the spec file dealing with it (eg. moving it from /sbin/ /usr/sbin/) and the README.cfdisk file in /usr/share/doc/util-linux-xxx/ ist still there. (Originally I planned to send the following to the testers-list, but I don't think it's too useful to duplecate it ...) From testers-list: On Sat, 8 Sep 2001, Chris Negus wrote: > Is the cfdisk command no longer included in 7.2? It was a bit more intuitive > to use than fdisk. cfdisk was previousely in util-linux. /usr/sbin/cfdisk /usr/share/doc/util-linux-xxx/README.cfdisk /usr/share/man/man8/cfdisk.8.gz cfdisk and the cfdisk man page are gone, README.cfdisk is still there in the 2.11f-9 package. In the SRPM, cfdisk.c and cfdisk.8 are still available in fdisk/ . The spec file still contains stuff dealing with sfdisk, eg.: # This has dependencies on stuff in /usr %ifnarch sparc sparc64 sparcv9 mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/sbin/cfdisk ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/usr/sbin %endif However, cfdisk and cfdisk.8 are commented out: #%{_sbindir}/cfdisk #%{_mandir}/man8/cfdisk.8* Finally, there's a nicht changelog entry: * Sun Aug 26 2001 Elliot Lee <sopwith> 2.11f-9 - Don't include cfdisk, since it appears to be an even bigger pile of junk than fdisk? :) It's obviousely a bug. If cfdisk is to be removed, do also remove the README file and clean up the specs file ...
