dear Emilien, sorry for late reply. If you like to continue the conversation I recommend inscribing to this list, your mail was stuck for quite a while. Also thanks for raising the issue.

An intervention on that package should then address also this problem IMHO. Investigating the issue I also found out a discrepancy in Debian: the os-release manpage is not contained in the package providing it but, for some obscure reason, it is contained in the infamous systemd package, which somehow has fagocitated also the base-files manual. systemd: /usr/share/man/man5/os-release.5.gz I believe this should also be corrected and we should bring os-release.5 back home. ciao _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
