Description Wolfram Schneider freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-11-08 10:23:45 UTC
The apropos(1) manual page has a HISTORY section. It mentions everything except FreeBSD (2BSD, 4.3BSD, OpenBSD). 

The history of apropos(1) in FreeBSD 1.0 to FreeBSD 10 is missing.

I mentioned FreeBSD in the HISTORY section of apropos(1) and upstreamed the change to OpenBSD.

Log:
  Revert r362809: Mention FreeBSD in the HISTORY sections of apropos(1) and makewhatis(8).

  We don't mention the first appearance of a utility in FreeBSD, when it first
  appeared in a BSD version that predates FreeBSD.
