I think what the manual page means here is that cpmod(1) is currently not availible in the FreeBSD Operating System... chmod(1) is a valid command in FreeBSD though, and that wouldn't make sence to say: and chmod(1) is not availible. Without supporting text that is similar to: chmod(1) is not availible when working with this utility. Although I wouldn't see why ;) On Mon, 30 Sep 2002 12:48:46 +0800 (CST) wkwu@csie.nctu.edu.tw wrote: > > >Number: 43502 > >Category: docs > >Synopsis: Manual page ZNEW(1) has a bug > >Confidential: no > >Severity: non-critical > >Priority: low > >Responsible: freebsd-doc > >State: open > >Quarter: > >Keywords: > >Date-Required: > >Class: doc-bug > >Submitter-Id: current-users > >Arrival-Date: Sun Sep 29 21:50:02 PDT 2002 > >Closed-Date: > >Last-Modified: > >Originator: Wei-Kai Wu > >Release: FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE i386 > >Organization: > Kavalan > >Environment: > > FreeBSD 4.7-RC > > >Description: > > At the bottom of manual page ZNEW(1), the BUGS section: > > Znew does not maintain the time stamp with the -P option > if cpmod(1) is not available and touch(1) does not support > the -r option. > > It should be the "chmod(1)" instead of "cpmod(1)". > > >How-To-Repeat: > >Fix: > >Release-Note: > >Audit-Trail: > >Unformatted: > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message > -- Tom (Darklogik) Rhodes www.FreeBSD.org -The Power To Serve www.Pittgoth.com -Pittgoth Discussion Portal trhodes@{Pittgoth.com, FreeBSD.org} PGP key by www: http://www.pittgoth.com/~darklogik/darklogik.key I made a mistake.

The double negative is something I don't like, but the following is clear to me: : BUGS : Znew does not maintain the time stamp with the -P option : if cpmod(1) is not available and touch(1) does not support : the -r option. The -P option depends on either cpmod(1) being available, or touch(1) supporting the -r option. It is not even a "bug" if you ask me. Giorgos.

At the bottom of manual page ZNEW(1), the BUGS section: Znew does not maintain the time stamp with the -P option if cpmod(1) is not available and touch(1) does not support the -r option. It should be the "chmod(1)" instead of "cpmod(1)".
