Sorry for the nasty lines. Please read them as: If you are interested in reassigning this bug to dpkg, do it within the next two days as I don't want to leave this bug in man-db as I will take a plane on thursday :-) I myself am not interested to do the reassignement because there are already bugs opened and apt has promised to solve this question. When apt will be released, if it will not solve that, you'll hear my voice. > [In fact, I probably could reassign it, if I read the BTS documentation; > but as a point of principle you shouldn't ask me to :->] Well the BTS is there to be used by debian users (as I am too) and is not "private" territory of developers. It's simply a way of discussiong in front of a working recorder. I personally consider each bug as a "personal note" coming from a user, and I usually ask them if they prefere to do changes to the bug by themselves. The docs are not so plain (text only and in "reference" format only), but they are already on your box, under /usr/doc/debian . fab -- | [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 6F7267F5 fingerprint 57 16 C4 ED C9 86 40 7B 1A 69 A1 66 EC FB D2 5E > PROSA srl - la prima azienda commerciale esclusivamente open-source > PROSA ltd - the first commercial firm enterely open-source oriented | support the open-source initiative! http://www.opensource.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
