I'm pretty sure some of the man > pages Dan mentioned only exist in the queue branch. Apparently, there isn't a massive difference for the manual pages between the master and the queue branches. In particular there are no new manual pages being introduced in the queue branch (although there are some modifications to existing pages mainly due to modifications in the tools). I would like to take this opportunity to suggest that we create manual pages for configuration files where possible (none available at the moment ?!?). For example, the very first one I would like to have is semanage.conf.5. Then we could also create restorecond.conf.5 and restorecond_user.conf.5 (both of them should be trivial). There might be very slight improvements possible for the seunshare manual page. The manual pages for sepolgen* are missing and therefore will need to be created from scratch. The manual page for sandbox.8 could be improved by mentioning that a configuration file exists in $(DESTDIR)/etc/sysconfig/sandbox (along with a manual page sandbox.conf.5). That said, I am now going to start creating semanage.conf.5... Regards, Guido -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
