Created attachment 469764 [details] i2cdetect(8) patch Description of problem: Spelling fixes for i2cdetect(8) /usr/share/man/man8/i2cdetect.8.gz Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lm_sensors-2.10.7-9.el5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. man 8 i2cdetect Actual results / Expected results / Additional info: See patch
Moving this bug to Fedora as agreed with the reporter. I apologize if the manpage typo/grammar error was already fixed in version included in the Fedora, if that's the case, feel free to close the bug.
Thanks for your time to report, but neither rhel >= 5 nor feroda is already fixed. For rhel5: $ grep busses i2cdetect.8 should correspond to one of the busses listed by \fIi2cdetect -l\fR. Output a list of installed busses. For rhel6 and all fedoras $ find -name 'i2c*' There is no such a file. Hence it's fixed.

Hence it's fixed. This is not correct, i2cdetect is still around, but it is part of i2c-tools now, re-opening and changing component.
Note, not sure of the patch is correct, see: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071216082739AAfkxnm
Not sure, busses just looks wrong to my UK English brain (and firefox's spell checker doesn't like it either). Can't think of any other nouns ending in s that change to "ses" in the plural form... http://www.theenglishspace.com/spelling/plurals-ending-s.html and others suggest it's always add "es". On the other hand /usr/share/dict/words has busses but it also has buss which is a singular kiss according to the yahoo article linked to above. Do what you think is best or toss a coin :-)
"busses" is common in electrical engineering jargon.
I'm an EE, it's "buses" here :-(
