Re: [arch-general] [arch-dev-public] [signoff] man-db 2.5.3-2 replacing man

Anything else to improve?

Replacing man with man-db will leave the old whatis databases on the system, with no package owning them. On my system: /opt/java/jre/man/whatis /opt/java/man/whatis /usr/local/man/whatis /usr/man/whatis /usr/man/it/whatis /usr/share/man/whatis /usr/share/man/it/whatis A warning about the issue? A solution could be a man package update with an uninstall script that take care of this, then go on with man-db.
