Gidday!
I'm proud to announce:
man-pages-6.05 - manual pages for GNU/Linux
The release tarball is already available at <kernel.org>
Tarball download:
<https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/>
Git repository:
<https://git.kernel.org/cgit/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/>
A change from man-pages-6.04 merits a mention in this release, as it
wasn't properly documented in the previous release notes:
- Add make(1) 'check' target. This has been split from 'lint'.
'lint' will check the source code, and 'check' will check the
rendered pages (as a user will read them). There are currently
several pages that fail this `make check`, and distributors that
depend on this can workaround it by touching a few files:
$ make check -k -j >/dev/null 2>/dev/null;
$ make check -k 2>/dev/null;
GREP .tmp/man/man1/memusage.1.check-catman.touch
TROFF .tmp/man/man2/fanotify_init.2.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man2/gettimeofday.2.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man2/s390_sthyi.2.cat.set
GREP .tmp/man/man3/mallopt.3.check-catman.touch
TROFF .tmp/man/man3/unlocked_stdio.3.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man4/console_codes.4.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man4/lirc.4.cat.set
GREP .tmp/man/man4/smartpqi.4.check-catman.touch
GREP .tmp/man/man4/veth.4.check-catman.touch
TROFF .tmp/man/man5/proc.5.cat.set
GREP .tmp/man/man5/slabinfo.5.check-catman.touch
TROFF .tmp/man/man5/tzfile.5.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man7/address_families.7.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man7/ascii.7.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man7/bpf-helpers.7.cat.set
GREP .tmp/man/man7/keyrings.7.check-catman.touch
GREP .tmp/man/man7/uri.7.check-catman.touch
TROFF .tmp/man/man8/tzselect.8.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man8/zdump.8.cat.set
TROFF .tmp/man/man8/zic.8.cat.set
After touching the previous files, `make check` will succeed:
$ make check -k 2>/dev/null | awk '{print $2}' | xargs touch;
$ make check -j >/dev/null;
$ echo $?
0
The most notable changes in this release (man-pages-6.05) are:
New and rewritten pages
-----------------------
man2/
ioctl_pipe.2
man3/
regex.3
man5/
erofs.5
Newly documented interfaces in existing pages
---------------------------------------------
bpf.2
EAGAIN
ioctl_userfaultfd.2
UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS
prctl.2
PR_GET_AUXV
recv.2
MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC
statx.2
STAT_ATTR_MOUNT_ROOT
syscall.2
ENOSYS
resolv.conf.5
no-aaaa
RES_NOAAAA
tmpfs.5
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
ip.7
IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE
rtnetlink.7
IFLA_PERM_ADDRESS
New and changed links
---------------------
man3type/
regex_t.3type (regex(3))
regmatch_t.3type (regex(3))
regoff_t.3type (regex(3))
Global changes
--------------
- Types:
- Document functions using off64_t as if they used off_t (except
for lseek64()).
- Build system:
- Keep file modes in the release tarball.
- Fix symlink installation (`make install LINK_PAGES=symlink`).
- Add support for using bzip2(1), lzip(1), and xz(1) when installing
pages and creating release tarballs.
- Create reproducible release tarballs.
- Move makefiles from lib/ to share/mk/.
- Support mdoc(7) pages.
- Relicense Makefiles as GPL-3.0-or-later.
- Build PostScript and PDF manual pages.
- Add support for running our build system on arbitrary source
trees; this makes it possible to easily run our linters on another
project's manual pages as easily as `make lint MANDIR=~/src/groff`
- Licenses:
- Relicense ddp.7 from VERBATIM_ONE_PARA to Linux-man-pages-copyleft.
- Relicense dir_colors.5 from LDPv1 to GPL-2.0-or-later.
- Use new SPDX license identifiers:
- Linux-man-pages-1-para (was VERBATIM_ONE_PARA)
- Linux-man-pages-copyleft-2-para (was VERBATIM_TWO_PARA)
- Linux-man-pages-copyleft-var (was VERBATIM_PROF)
- ffix:
- use `\%`
- un-bracket tbl(1) tables

There was a small problem while packaging for Debian. quilt(1)
produces a .pc/ dir in the root of the repository, and the patches
stored in there confuse the build system to try to lint those patches
as if they were manual pages. If you successfully packaged 6.05
without noticing this issue, you can safely ignore this bugfix
release. If you noticed the issue, or haven't yet started, I suggest
you package 6.05.01.
Changes since man-pages-6.05:
man-pages-6.05.01:
- Build system:
- Ignore dot-dirs within $MANDIR
Cheers,
Alex
