Description of problem:
there are a few misspeled words in the manpage for up2date.
there are also a few malformed sentences in the manpage.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
man up2date

Additional info:

here is an excerpt from the manpage for up2date:
"
       --whatprovides=<deps>
              Queries  the RHN servers to resolve the comma seperated list of
dependiencies. It will return a list of packages
              will satisfy those deps. It make be necessary

       --solvedeps=<deps>
              Queries the RHN servers to resolve the comma seperated list of
dependiencies. Essentially the same as --whatpro-
              vides except it will also download and install the packages that
are needed to resolve the dependiencies.
"

in the descriptions of these two options the word "dependency" is always
misspelled as "dependiency".

The sentence: "It will return a list of packages will satisfy those deps." is
malformed.

The sentence: "It make be necessary" is malformed.

Comment 1 Adrian Likins 2002-04-10 21:47:36 UTC
fixed in cvs, should be fixed in 2.7.72 or higher

Comment 2 Ben Levenson 2002-05-08 05:43:30 UTC
up2date-2.7.86-7.x.3 looks OK.
CLOSING -> CURRENTRELEASE
