RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 2 Tomas Mraz 2012-07-19 18:49:13 UTC
The page is available as 'man sslrand'.

Comment 3 Thom Carlin 2012-07-19 19:05:09 UTC
Confirmed.  Should the 'openssl' manpage "See Also" section be updated to reflect that?

Comment 4 Tomas Mraz 2012-07-19 19:46:24 UTC
It is renamed in the spec file during the build because they were conflicting with other manpage. But that is probably not true anymore.

In case of the openssl passwd manpage the conflict with regular passwd manpage still exists though.

But for RHEL-6 I'd probably say that patching the See Also in the openssl manpage is the most appropriate solution.
