man-pages-3.59 and man-pages-3.60 are released

["Michael Kerrisk (man-pages)" <mtk.manpages-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Gidday,

The Linux man-pages maintainer slightly less proudly than usual announces:

    man-pages-3.59 - man pages for Linux
    man-pages-3.60 - man pages for Linux

Release 3.59 was exclusively about re-encoding various pages, and the
changelog, to UTF-8. Unfortunately, some encoding errors were *introduced*
in two pages, and I decided to just do a quick small 3.60 release
that fixes those errors.

   manual pages set in a particular distribution, or have expressed
   interest in helping with man-pages maintenance, or have otherwise
   expressed interest in being notified about man-pages releases.
   If you don't want to receive such messages from me, or you know of

   notifications, send me a message.

Global changes
--------------

Various pages
    Peter Schiffer, Michael Kerrisk  [Weizhou Pan]
        Convert pages containing non-ASCII in source code comments to use UTF-8
            Done using a slightly modified version of Peter Schiffer's
            convert_to_utf_8.sh script. The script was modified so as *not*
            a "coding:" marker to the groff source. For now, we'll only put
            that marker on pages that contain non-ASCII characters in the
            rendered text.
