https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=273777 Bug ID: 273777 Summary: pkgbase: Library manpages should be in the -dev packages Product: Base System Version: 15.0-CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dfr@rabson.org I have a simple base image for containers which contains just core shared libraries, SSL libraries and certificates. This image is about 30MB, of which 10MB is library manpages. It seems to me that library manpages are mainly a resource for developers and should be packaged with the other compile-time files such as include files and static libraries. I suggest that manpages for libraries should move to the -dev package unless MK_MANSPLITPKG is set. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
