switching from man to man-db

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
I'd like to switch from man 
(http://primates.ximian.com/~flucifredi/man/) to man-db project 
(http://man-db.nongnu.org/).
man-db seems for me to be better choice then the original man. The 
reasons are:
* the upstream very active in man-db, man upstream almost does not 
response and the last version was released in 2007
* because of the previous comment man-db have more features then man
* man-db uses Berkeley db instead of text file for the index of man pages
* Debian, Ubuntu, SuSE use man-db
As the first step I want to add man-db to fedora cvs.
Comments welcomed.

Ivana
