System: NetBSD rupert.oscs.montana.edu 1.2_BETA NetBSD 1.2_BETA (SLIM) #7: Tue Aug 6 19:52:09 MDT 1996 cjones@rupert.oscs.montana.edu:/home/src/sys/arch/mac68k/compile/SLIM mac68k


>Description:
1.  With the addition of section 9 to the manual, man.conf should look
in */cat9 and */man9 for man pages.

2.  Also, man.conf is written for X11R4, not X11R6.  Should these
references all be changed to X11 instead of X11Rn?

3.  gunzip is in /usr/bin, not /usr/contrib/bin.

4.  Specific sections should probably include */man?, as well as
*/cat?.

5.  Should _whatdb include /usr/local and /usr/X11?
