Bug 20928 – buglet in ebuild.5 man page

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description rob holland (RETIRED) 2003-05-13 09:02:53 UTC]

the dosed section in the ebuild.5 man page is slightly broken, it prints:

       dosed "s:orig:change:g" <filename>
              Performs sed (including cp/mv filename)  on  file-
              name.
              <B4<B4>dosed "s:/usr/local:/usr:g" /usr/bin/some-script'
              runs sed on ${D}/usr/bin/some-script

The <B4<B4> stuff shouldn't be there.

I've written a patch which fixes it by copying the syntax of the dodir section a
little bit below it. Please check that this is the right way to do it, I don't
know manpage stuff very well.
