Package: manpages-dev
Version: 3.65-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

the man page for umask(2) is a bit unclear, in that it contains the
following line : 
    0666 & ~022 = 0644; i.e., rw-r--r--
that is slightly misleading (took me ~6 hours to understand where the problem 
was coming from) for anyone who doesn't use ~ as NOT.

Suggested fix : replace that line with something like 
    0666 !& 022 = 0644; since 110 110 110 NAND 000 010 010 = 110 100
    100; i.e., rw-r--r--
