Yes, because the manual doesn't know anything about specific packages. It's the manual of the project in general: how do you install packages in general, how do you build packages in general, and so on. In a perfect world we would have a single search for everything (framework questions and specific packages), but we have now bigger problems so unless someone volunteers, it will stay the way it is now: fragmented. Going back to your starting point, http://www.opencsw.org/package/cas_crontab/ is the right place for this kind of information, but the problem is that VENDOR_URL points at our home page, and I think this is an error in the recipe: https://buildfarm.opencsw.org/source/xref/opencsw/csw/mgar/pkg/cswclassutils/trunk/Makefile#26 This just says: "Class action script $(call cas_shortname,$(1))" And this https://buildfarm.opencsw.org/source/xref/opencsw/csw/mgar/pkg/cswclassutils/trunk/Makefile#67 says "SPKG_SOURCEURL = http://www.opencsw.org"; So the least we can do, is to point the recipe at http://wiki.opencsw.org/cswclassutils-package Once we do that, http://www.opencsw.org/package/cas_crontab/ will be more informative. > >> So, what does a `Class action script crontab' do? > > > > Essentially it allows editing the crontab as described in our development > > wiki: > > http://wiki.opencsw.org/cswclassutils-package#toc28 > > > > You can find the build definition here: > > > > https://buildfarm.opencsw.org/source/xref/opencsw/csw/mgar/pkg/cswclassutils/trunk/ > > Thanks.

Harry, what could http://wiki.opencsw.org/cswclassutils-package#toc28 say to be more helpful? Maciej
