Name : man Product : Fedora 11 Version : 1.6f Release : 20.fc11 URL : http://primates.ximian.com/~flucifredi/man/ Summary : A set of documentation tools: man, apropos and whatis Description : The man package includes three tools for finding information and/or documentation about your Linux system: man, apropos, and whatis. The man system formats and displays on-line manual pages about commands or functions on your system. Apropos searches the whatis database (containing short descriptions of system commands) for a string. Whatis searches its own database for a complete word. The man package should be installed on your system because it is the primary way to find documentation on a Linux system. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update reduces complexity of makewhatis code, making it faster and removing obfuscated code lowering chances of bugs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Apr 21 2009 Lubomir Rintel <lkund...@v3.sk> - 1.6f-20 - Don't remove cache and whatis database on updates - Ghost whatis database * Tue Apr 21 2009 Lubomir Rintel <lkund...@v3.sk> - 1.6f-19 - The daily cron job is not a configuration file * Sun Apr 19 2009 Lubomir Rintel <lkund...@v3.sk> - 1.6f-18 - Get rid of slow weekly updates - Make daily updates reliable - Speed up initial indexation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #496520 - [PATCH] makewhatis is so slow it makes me cry https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496520 [ 2 ] Bug #492341 - anacron report weekly warning https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492341 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
