Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: man-db-2.7.1-1

The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

* man-db-2.7.1-1

man-db is an implementation of the standard Unix documentation system
accessed using the man command. It uses an embedded database in place of
the traditional flat-text whatis databases.

This is an update to the latest upstream release.  The default
man_db.conf has been changed to support SECTIONs 0p, 1p, and 3p for
POSIX documentation.


Thanks.

Note this change in 2.7.0:


Major changes since man-db 2.6.7.1:

Upgrading from previous versions:
---------------------------------

For the first time since version 2.4.0, the database format has
changed slightly, so you will need to run 'mandb --create' after
installing the new version to rebuild your databases from scratch.


All changes, see: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/man-db.git/tree/NEWS
