Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
Most Section 1 man pages are removed
mtk (with help from Mike Frysinger, Laird Shaw, Andreas Halter)
Once upon time Andries added a number of Section 1 manual pages
to man-pages. However, since that time, those pages have not
seen much maintenance, and are not in fact distributed in most
distributions. Instead most distributions supply the
coreutils versions of these pages, which are currently
maintained. In addition, man-pages provides the 1p pages,
which document the portable subset of functionality of these
commands. Since the man1 pages are mostly unneeded, and
out of date, I'm removing them. The following pages disappear:
chgrp.1
chmod.1
chown.1
cp.1
dd.1
df.1
diff.1
dir.1
dircolors.1
du.1
install.1
ln.1
