Description Johnray Fuller 2002-02-06 18:36:55 UTC
Description of Problem:

/usr/share/man/man8/mkfs.ext2.8.gz

Is not installed with util-linux, and thus the reference to this man page--cited
at the bottom of the mkfs man page--is confusing.

Also, less importantly, the following man pages are referenced, but not
installed with util-linux:

/usr/share/man/man8/mkfs.xfs.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/mkfs.xiafs.8.gz

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

util-linux-2.11f-17

How Reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 

Actual Results:


Expected Results:


Additional Information:

Perhaps just adding a sim-link to the package for these man pages will be
enough, especially for mkfs.ext2 > mke2fs.
