Package: manpages-dev Version: 3.05-1 Severity: normal The man page for strsignal(3) claims that the function is not part of any standard. Actually the function is part of the POSIX standard, as of 2008. See
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/strsignal.html This means among other things that it should be possible to get the function without #define _GNU_SOURCE as described on the man page. I'm reporting this as 'normal' rather than 'minor' because it's valuable for users to know when their code is portable to a POSIX system. I'm reporting to Debian rather than upstream because upstream says that glibc bugs as part of a Linux distribution should be reported to that distribution. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages manpages-dev depends on: ii manpages 3.05-1 Manual pages about using a GNU/Lin manpages-dev recommends no packages.
