Sun Aug 1 14:00:00 2004 Alan Cox
- Fix requirements (#126601)

Tue Jun 15 14:00:00 2004 Elliot Lee
- rebuilt

Wed Mar 31 14:00:00 2004 Adrian Havill 1.5m2-6

- downconvert via transliteration C locale man pages just in case
- patch #3, #8, #10, #17, #29, #31 no longer needed-- made it upstream
- patch #9, #14 and #19 now superfluous-- strs already termed and len checked
- disable patch #22: defer cat creation to existence of dir, not conf directive
- patch #32 mostly merged upstream. Keep the \"-a\" in grep though so all
locales\' grep see man pages as text not binary (patch 37)
- iconv patch no longer needed now that utf-8-to-legacy conversion is not
needed
- patch #52 and #53 not needed: CJK all point to nroff instead of groff, let
the nroff script decide, based on the charset of the environment and/or the
charset of the man page, as to what parameters to pass to groff (and
whether iconv preprocessing is necessary)
- the string \"NROFF_OLD_CHARSET\", if present in the man.config for the NROFF
path, will now be replaced by the old character set so that nroff can figure
out what the character set/encoding is

- lots of makewhatis changes: re-add custom rh client stuff (/usr/bin vs
/usr/sbin), -o option, /var/cache/man, utf-8 verification, convert the
encoding spaghetti in the makewhatis awk script to UTF-8, identify languages
in comments
