#526 closed defect (invalid)

netkit-base installs ping manpage in Sec. 8, but it should be in Sec. 1

Reported by: uli@… Owned by: lfs-book@…
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Book Version: CVS
Severity: minor Keywords:
Cc: uli@…

Description

ping is installed as /bin/ping, but the manpage as /usr/man/man8/ping.8

As ping (per installation) is a user program, the manpage should be in /usr/man/man1/ping.1

(Sidenote: Solaris has ping in /usr/sbin/ping, but the manpage in Sec. 1. What a mess.)

as the book will soon use inetutils instead of netkit, this bug is invalid
