Description Gary W. Swearingen 2001-12-03 03:20:01 UTC
disklabel(8)'s "Reading the disk label" section starts out "To examine
or save the label on a disk drive,...".  This is confusing.  The given
command (disklabel [-r] disk) doesn't save anything (except to standard
out, but that should go without saying).  It reads as if the command
might save something on the disk drive.
================

Fix: Remove "or save " with this patch:

patch -d "unknown uncompressed man directory" < this-PR
How-To-Repeat: n/a
================
