[Bug 410728] Re: Extended Attributes Manpages Missing

[Stéphane Aulery]

These pages are included in the package manpages sources and
"libattr1-dev". The manpages package maintainer decide not to install
the version shipped with its package.

Title:
  Extended Attributes Manpages Missing

Status in manpages package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in manpages package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: manpages

  It would be great if the manpages documentating extended attributes
  (setxattr, getxattr, attr, listxattr etc.) could be made available on
  Ubuntu systems. Online they are available from e.g.
  http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/lsetxattr.2.html
  or http://linux.die.net/man/5/attr, but I don't know if the license
  allows to use these versions).
