Description lcremeans 1999-08-15 06:30:00 UTC 
This patch fixes some out-of date info, namely that setup(1) would appear in
3.1 (it didn't), and that sysinstall should have died 3 years ago (a date
current as of sometime last year). I also changed the last part to not
mention specific year amounts, so that it won't need to be updated as often
in that respect.

Fix: This patch is against the latest -stable version, but also applies
cleanly (no rejected hunks) to the latest -current version:
How-To-Repeat: 
	N/A

   Not necessary - the date specified here only specifies the
date the man page was created.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

The man page was updated to reflect the fact that sysinstall didn't 
go away in 3.1.  Your patch was applied with some slight modification. 

Thanks for pointing this out!@
