Also, we've changed the build system to use POSIX's '::=' instead of GNU's ':='. Our build system is not portable to POSIX make(1), but this difference was unnecessary and seemed easy to change. ==================== Linux Software Map =========================== Begin4 Title: Linux man-pages Version: 6.19 Entered-date: 2026-08-25 Description: Manual pages for GNU+Linux. This package contains manual pages for sections 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7, and subsections of those. Only a few pages are provided in sections 1, 6, and 8, and none in 9.
