** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Groovy)

** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Focal)
   Importance: Undecided => Low

** Description changed:

+ [impact]
+ 
+ some systemd man pages refer to the wrong man section for some
+ references
+ 
+ [test case]
+ 
+ e.g.
+ 
+ $ man systemd.network | grep systemd.syntax
+        A plain ini-style text file that encodes network configuration for 
matching network interfaces, used by systemd-networkd(8). See systemd.syntax(5) 
for a general description of the syntax.
+ 
+ $ man 5 systemd.syntax
+ No manual entry for systemd.syntax in section 5
+ 
+ [regression potential]
+ 
+ any regression would possibly cause confusion by referencing the wrong
+ man section, or possibly cause a build failure, or problem with various
+ man pages for systemd
+ 
+ [scope]
+ 
+ this is needed for f/g
+ 
+ there is no systemd.syntax manpage in b or earlier
+ 
+ [original description]
+ 
  In Ubuntu 20.04 LTS there is no systemd.syntax(5) it is actually
  systemd.syntax(7).

  man section, or possibly cause a build failure, or problem with
  various man pages for systemd

  [scope]
