Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.6-2.2
Severity: minor

uptime shows load averages from the past 5, 10 and 15 minutes
But there is no description in manual what this "load averages" is, and how it
is measured. 
It was discussed many times on debian mailing lists:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2000/05/msg02520.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2000/05/msg02523.html
Maybe it will be good to put this in uptime(1) ?
