Description Daniel Roethlisberger 2006-02-20 16:20:18 UTC
These are the translated manual pages for security/nmap that were
previously part of the nmap distribution, but have been recently
removed from the upstream tarball due to their largish size.
Comment 1 Daniel Roethlisberger 2006-02-25 12:29:36 UTC
I've already had to update this port for the latest new translation
(Spanish).  I've put an up to date shar at [1].

Since this port did not make it into the tree before the freeze, and
more man page translations are on their way, it seems likely that there
will be yet another update before the freeze ends.  Whoever will commit
this port, please grab the latest shar from [2] before doing so.

Wouldn't it be better to offer localized doc in nmap port, via OPTIONS ?

In theory, yes, but the manual pages are very much in flux.  They are
released outside the normal nmap release schedule.  Frequent in-place
updates are common.  I didn't want to taint the popular nmap port with
frequent breakage and updates caused by the translated manual pages.

The alternative would be to get Fyodor to adhere to `normal' release
practices with the man pages too, or to provide a separate tarball with
manual pages snapshots.

(Note that latest patch for this new port is out of date regarding the
distfile size/checksum for one language)
