Hi!

While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have
noticed that the manpages generated for ldns are not the same
on every build.
Some manpages contain documentation for different functions
than their name would imply [2].

I was able to reproduce it locally, where e.g. ldns_calc_keytag.3
was incorrectly the manpage for ldns_key_rr2ds.

 Reiner

Just a short followup of my initial report, which perhaps
was a little brief...

The manpages seem to be generated by the script doc/doxyparse.pl
out of doxygen documentation.
But it can happen that the content of the manpages gets mixed up,
and for example the manpage ldns_calc_keytag.3.gz will contain
the documentation for a different function (ldns_key_buf2dsa).
A user wanting to read the manpage for ldns_calc_keytag will
then get the manpage for something else.

Version: 1.8.1-1

It *looks* like the manpages are now generated correctly.

Thanks,
