Description Benno Schulenberg 2006-08-07 05:22:17 UTC

Attached patch corrects some mistakes and inconsistencies in the ebuild.1 man page.  Mainly: use of third person instead of imperative, double space after a period, trimming of double words ("at at", "the the"), putting the missing "()" after two function names, hyphenation of "package-specific", correction of a derailed sentence, and trimming obvious info from the very first line.
