Mainly: I generally don't want us to be including URLs to mailing list discussions in a manual page. Either, the issue in the discussion is worth writing up in the manual page (so that the reader doesn't have to look elsewhere), or the details are less important, in which case it is sufficient to note the existence of the bug. I think this is an example of the latter. Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> |

README
This package contains Linux man pages for sections 1 through 8. Some more information is given in the 'man-pages-x.y.Announce' file. Homepage ======== For information about the Linux man-pages project, see http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/index.html. Bug reports and contributing ============================ If you have corrections and additions to suggest, see http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/contributing.html (Although there is a mirror of this repository on GitHub, please don't report issues via the GitHub issue tracker!) For further information on contributing, see the CONTRIBUTING file. Installing and uninstalling =========================== "make install" will copy these man pages to /usr/local/share/man/man[1-8]. To install to a path different from /usr/local, use "make install prefix=/install/path". "make remove" or "make uninstall" will remove any man page in this distribution from its destination. Use with caution, and remember to use "prefix" if desired, as with the "install" target. To install only a specific man section (mandir) such as man3, use "make install-man3". Similar syntax can be used to uninstall a specific man section, such as man7: "make uninstall-man7". "make" or "make all" will perform "make uninstall" followed by "make install". Consider using multiple threads (at least 2) when installing these man pages, as the Makefile is optimized for multiple threads: "make -j install".
