Last modified: 2014-06-09 02:56:46 EDT
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #891277 +++ Description of problem: the xinetd page mentions an option that doesn't exist anymore : -loop. it doesn't exist in the english manpage Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): man-pages-fr-3.23-9.el6.noarch How reproducible: very Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install man-pages-fr 2. LANG=fr_FR.utf8 LG_LANG=fr_FR man xinetd Actual results: it lists the option "-loop taux" that doesn't exist in the english version Expected results: the french version lists the same options as the english one. Additional info: we may be looking into a need to fully re-translate this page. this might not be the only page affected also mistranslated in RHEL5.
See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=905826#c5 The contents of xinetd.8 have not changed, they are still out of date even in the latest version of man-pages-fr in Fedora 18/rawhide. Current content is from: http://www.delafond.org/traducmanfr/mansupfr.tar.bz2 Félix> we may be looking into a need to fully re-translate this page. Looks like this is needed. Félix> this might not be the only page affected Yes, probably there are more pages affected.
Fedora package updated: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=905826#c6 The update only adds a warning to the xinetd.8 man page that it is quite outdated. We do not have a re-translated man page.
Félix> we may be looking into a need to fully re-translate this page. As this is nothing I can do, I’ll assign the bug to you to decide how to proceed.
As we do not have an up-to-date French man-page for xinetd, maybe it is OK if I remove the French man-page to get the English instead?
I added a warning on top of the French xinetd man-page now stating that it is obsolete and for reliable information one should consult the English man-page. This is the same fix we did for Fedora.
