            Bug ID: 229768
           Summary: 'pkg info' man page needs to say it displays info
                    about _installed_ packages
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Manual Pages
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: msi@malbolge.net
                CC: doc@FreeBSD.org

The manual page for 'pkg info' should clearly state that 'pkg info' displays
information about installed packages only.

The NAME section currently just says: "pkg info – display information for
packages".

The DESCRIPTION reads: "pkg info is used for displaying information for
packages".

And while we're at it, I think it should rather be "information _about_
packages".


Thanks,

msi
