Hmm. It is a pity in my opinion. Man pages of this kind are very useful. Imagine for example (not lapack example), that you forgot if the log function in C math library uses the number 10 as the base for the logarithm or the number e (Euler number). You type "man log" and you __immediately__ get the brief essence:
"log, logf, logl - natural logarithmic function" No ballast, just the essence you needed, without any need of network connection; no time wasted by browsing, searching. Lapack contains many functions and man pages to these functions are very useful because one can quickly see what are input and output parameters of a given function. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/764445 Title: after uninstalling liblapack-doc man pages have problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lapack/+bug/764445/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
