Hi everybody,
In an ongoing effort to keep our four month old 5.1 system secure and
up-to-date, last weekend we updated all the .rpm updates that were listed
in the 5.1 Intel errata and were appropriate for our system. Yesterday, we
compiled and installed BIND8.1.2. =20
This is what I have a question about.
The compile of BIND produced man pages in the /doc/man directory, but those
pages weren't installed. A "man bind" brings up the original bind man page
that refers named.boot. =20
Looking at the new named.8 file with man, I see this at the head of the=
file:
@INDOT_U@NAMED(@SYS_OPS_EXT_U@) LOCAL =
@INDOT_U@NAMED(@SYS_OPS_EXT_U@)
NAME
@INDOT@named - Internet domain name server (DNS)
One of the rpm updates we did was the Jun 2 man-1.5d-3.i386.rpm.
So.... my bottom line questions:
What the heck happened? Does it matter?
Did it have anything to do with the man .rpm update? Does it matter?
How do I fix this so that I have correct pages being called by man?
TIA,
Nikki
