fair enough, but should i submit a bug report for what seems to be a (minor) bug in the ubuntu packaging? running "publican --help" clearly suggests that "publican --man" is a valid invocation, but if you run that latter command, what you get is (weirdly) a listing of the /usr/bin/publican script, followed by: You need to install the perl-doc package to use this program. installing perl-doc fixes the issue, so shouldn't the ubuntu publican package have perl-doc as a required dependency? (sorry, i realize that this is more a ubuntu issue than a publican issue.) rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P. J.
