https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=289245 Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |emaste@freebsd.org, | |gtetlow@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #1 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> --- I haven't yet reviewed the patch but this sounds good to me. > * If -l support is added, i think support for "man ./manpage.1" should probably be > kept for a few years to ensure a smooth transition. After that, a decision can be > made to either delete support for "man ./manpage.1" or to keep it for good - either > way, that is out of the scope of this patch. IMO we should start emitting a warning on `man ./manpage.1` usage indicating that it's deprecated, suggesting -l. But indeed that can happen after and independent of this change. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
