The examples header in the manpage for the arp command is spelled
"Exsamples", where it should be "Examples". Also, the first author's
e-mail address (Fred N. van Kempen, <waltje@

uwalt.nl.mugnet.org> no longer exists; mail returned, domain name not
found).


The error for the manpage seems to be in a patch. It changes "EXAMPLES"
to "EXSAMPLES", creating the typo.

Hi,

while this typo is still present in jessie, it seems to be fixed in stretch.

The arp manpage in net-tools 1.60+git20150829.73cef8a-1 does not
contain the typo anymore.

Best,
Sebastian
