Yeah, I think we botched that -- maybe we'll call it optimism. =( https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/usr.bin/grep/Makefile?view=markup#l13 should read "MAN1= bsdgrep.1 zgrep.1" rather than grep.1 zgrep.1, I believe. (CC bapt@ for a second eye, since this was during zgrep stuff) Thanks, Kyle Evans _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
