Description:   Opened: 2004-11-11 15:35 0000
Not sure what to do with this yet, but I noticed that gpasswd was not mentioned
in SEE ALSO in the following man pages (where it probably should be mentioned):

usermod
groupadd
groupdel

I guess this should go upstream, but I was wondering if we should patch the man
pages here first, or just try to contact the authors.

this is clearly a UPSTREAM... please contact the upstream maintainers.. 

------- Comment #2 From Eric Brown 2004-12-08 09:20:38 0000 -------
I want to submit a patch for the relevant files, the author's email isn't
active, and the upstream people don't seem to respond to anything.  I think the
gentoo man page users would benefit from it..


Can I do that?
