Yes please. I think it's better, as the current page references fileutils-4.1: http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man5/dir_colors.5.html It's probably best if you don't do anything for now. That will allow us to add the updated page to coreutils and packagers can give precedence to it. cheers, Pádraig. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
