Package: coreutils Version: 8.20-3 Severity: minor File: /usr/share/man/man1/tsort.1.gz
Topological sorting requires a list of directed edges. In order to describe these edges, one must have at least two pieces of information per edge, namely the vertices defining that edge. tsort presumably requires some specific format for this information, but the manual page does not say what it is. Thus, a user cannot be expected to make any reasonable use of tsort based on reading only the manual page. The manual page should be improved so that a user can determine what input format tsort takes by reading the manual page alone. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-rc4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.10 ii install-info 5.1.dfsg.1-3 ii libacl1 2.2.52-1 ii libattr1 1:2.4.47-1 ii libc6 2.17-5 ii libselinux1 2.1.13-2 coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
