Hi everyone.
The Derived Manifests spec has been updated.
In general, when you're updating a spec, especially one that was last
reviewed months ago, please have OpenOffice record changes and produce
changebars in the output.
The main changes are:
1) aimanifest command syntax
Assuming this implies that 5.2.5 was the changed section, it appears
from manual comparison against .91 that the change was to add "-r" to
the set and add subcommands? A nit that the add synopsis doesn't
include it, only the descriptive text.
It seems that at this point it would be useful to write the aimanifest
man page and refer to it as the primary reference for command syntax.
2) installadm list output
Assuming that the reference is to 5.3.2:
- why retain the parenthetical output in the Status column? Seems that
this should match with the per-service output, and also include the
inactive reference
- going a bit further with the prior thought, would it not make sense to
provide criteria as part of the -m output without a service name? In
other words, -n merely becomes a way to filter the output, not a
drill-down for details? (admittedly, this is perhaps outside the bounds
of this project).
