Reiter" To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Subject: old man pages Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org hi, i was randomly thinking about how when a make installworld (or the like)_ is done, it does not take into account old man page versions, does it? By this I mean, things like lkm(4) is pretty damn outdated and unused on a 4.x machine and so it's kind of not a necesity to have it installed or left as installed (from a previous installworld). i would want to have the lkm(4) man page removed if it was still there from a previous installation because it has nothing to do with the current OS context (note, lkm(4) was just used as an example). if im touching on an old topic, i apologize. andrew *-------------................................................. | Andrew R.
