Subject: [PATCH iproute2 2/4] man: add more keywords to ip.8 short description
Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2017 23:01:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171229220125.13579-2-bluca@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171229220125.13579-1-bluca@debian.org>

A Debian user suggested adding more network-related keywords to the
ip manpage, so that manpage-scraping and indexing software like
apropos can do a better job of categorizing the programs.
