Hi,
I am writing to report a few very minor bugs in the *documentation* (the crypto pod files) for OpenSSL 0.9.7c. Here is my info: OpenSSL version: 0.9.7c OS Name, Version, Hardware platform: N/A (architecture-independent problem) Compiler Details: N/A (documentation, not code) Application Details: pod2man from perl v5.8.0 Problem Description: See below Stack Traceback: N/A Three of the pod files in the doc/crypto directory have minor problems when man pages are generated during "make install_docs". In the HEAD1 section of the pod file "doc/crypto/EVP_DigestInit.pod", a comma has been omitted between the two function names "EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex" and "EVP_MD_CTX_copy". As a result, instead of two symbolic links (pointing to "EVP_DigestInit.3") being created for the two functions, a single symbolic link named "EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex EVP_MD_CTX_copy.3" is generated. A similar problem exists in "doc/crypto/ui.pod", between the two functions "UI_construct_prompt" and "UI_add_error_string". Finally, the file "doc/crypto/des_modes.pod" has the title "Modes of DES" in its HEAD1 section, which results the creation of a symbolic link "Modes of DES.7" that points to "des_modes.7". Having space characters in filenames is not a big problem for us, but it can be a little of inconvenient when we post-process our man page collections (for indexing, etc.). Any chance of making this "Modes_of_DES" instead?
