The man page webapp-config.8 for app-admin/webapp-config-1.50.16-r3 contains a typo: it lists the short form of ‘--default-dirs’ as ‘--vd’ instead of ‘--dd’. It should also note clearly that ‘--dd’ is the short form of ‘--default-dirs’, as is ‘--vf’ for ‘--virtual-files’, but that these are two sets of options, and not all of them are equal. Perhaps this can be clarified with an additional line break between these two options to make the distinction more apparent. Thanks.
Does the same apply for webapp.eclass manpage from eclass-manpages package? Be advised that webapp-config no longer installs manual page for eclass.

(In reply to comment #2) > Created attachment 343470 [details, diff] [details, diff] > Fixes incorrect flag in webapp-config man page. this is a patch directly against the man page. We need a patch against the repository's .xml file: webapp-config/doc/webapp-config.8.xml cd into the git repo directory. make the changes. commit them locally. then do git format-patch HEAD^

I also need to edit the man page to reflect the removal of the --cp flag.

Editing the man page to reflect the removal of the --cp flag is complete. I do believe I need to alter one more thing in this bug to show an additional line break between the two options.
Created attachment 355200 [details, diff] Fixes incorrect flag in webapp-config man page. (alternative w/line separation) This patch includes a new line between the virtual-files, and default-dirs flags to show a distinction between the two. Warning: This was done by adding a </varlistentry> and another <varlistentry> between the --dd flag, and the --virtual-files flag. I'm including this warning because <varlistentry> expects a <listitem> to go with it as well. It should work but I'm not 100% certain, so I believe it should be checked before being commited. I used a tool to change the xml to html, and it warned me about this error. I had to skip validation in order for it to convert it. This is why I made this patch an alternative instead of deprecating the previous patch.
Neither of those patches have been applied and a proper fix will be in the experimental branch of webapp-config shortly.
