Package: nfs-common Version: 1:1.2.4-1 Tags: patch Severity: minor Hi,
During update of manpages-fr-extra, po4a complained about syntax issues with nfs.5 manpage from nfs-utils. It's not only nitpicking for po4a, as it prevents as well some part of the manpages from being displayed by the pager, a full sentence cannot be displayed: To support legacy flock behavior similar to that of NFS clients < 2.6.12, -use Samba as Samba maps Windows share mode locks as flock. Since NFS clients > +use ´local_lock=flock´. This option is required when exporting NFS mounts via +Samba as Samba maps Windows share mode locks as flock. Since NFS clients > 2.6.12 implement flock by emulating POSIX locks, this will result in conflicting locks. This is actually already spotted by lintian: http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/[email protected]#nfs-utils Find attached the patch against your current git tree. -- Simon Paillard
