Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 7168
A few missing man pages
Last modified: 2015-03-04 20:08:36 EST
(Most of these are not in the man-pages RPM, but I didn't want to submit lots of separate bug reports.) * The man page for statd(8) is slightly wrong (it refers to /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd and /usr/sbin/rpc.statd, but those binaries are in /sbin), and there's no man page for lockd(8). * The EXMH documentation is divided into multiple man pages, including exmh(1), exmh-use(1), exmh-ref(1), and exmh-custom(1). Only the man page for exmh(1) is included in the RedHat 6.1 EXMH rpm (exmh-2.0.3-2); the others are missing. (That was the case under RedHat 5.2 also.) * The command `man -k clock' includes in its output clock (8) - query and set the hardware clock (RTC) and setclock(8) also refers to clock(8), but `man 8 clock' says `No entry for clock in section 8 of the manual', and sure enough, there's no clock.8 under /usr/man. * There are no man pages for rhosts(5) or hosts.equiv(5).

I've fixed timeconfig (bad clock(8) references) Exmh doesn't include those files I'm binding it to a different component, as stad is part of nfs-utils PS: Please submit multiple bugs instead of one big report. TIA.
rhosts and rhosts.equiv man pages don't exist in Linux distribution of those tools. rexec(1) man page is missing from the RPM though. There are two reasons; rexec patch for 0.10 uses $MANDIR in a different sense than expected, and SPEC file has a missing entry. Patched attached. lockd man page is there in nfs-utils-0.1.8-2. statd and lockd point to wrong places. Patch attached.
Created attachment 1187 [details] rexec(1) man page Makefile patch.
Created attachment 1188 [details] rsh spec file patch to enable rexec(1) man pages
Created attachment 1189 [details] nfs-utils man page patch for /sbin/{statd,lockd}

rexec man page still missing as is man 5 rhosts Others seem ok
Erh, can't find the rhosts(5) manpage anywhere at all... Rest of the manpages are there though, so closing the bug. Read ya, Phil
