[lm-sensors] sensors.conf manpage name

[lm-sensors] sensors.conf manpage name

[Hans de Goede]

Hi,

I just received this bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?idR6178

Which makes sense, so now I was thinking how to best handle this. We
can make a sensors3.conf.5 symlink to sensors.conf.5 or we can just
rename it. There is something to be said for both cases.

sensors3.conf is the new default name, but sensors.conf is still used
as a fallback by libsensors.

So what is your 2 cents on this ?

Regards,

Hans

I believe a symlink would solve the problem better. If we rename the
man page, then I can see old-timers complain next time they try "man
sensors.conf" and it fails. And as you said, both names are equally
valid.

Ok, so a symlink it is. Hmm:

[hans@localhost trunk]$ svn update
svn: OPTIONS of 'http://lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk': could not connect to server (http://lm-sensors.org)
[hans@localhost trunk]$

Am I doing something wrong, or ?

Regards,

Hans
