The following package has been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution:

* man-pages-linux	6.02

Documents the Linux kernel system calls and C library interfaces used
by programs, plus system and administrative utilities, devices, file
system, file, and data formats, and related information.

For more information, see the project home page:

	https://kernel.org/doc/man-pages/

You may also search and read the pages online:

	https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/

although the latest release may not yet be available. 

As Cygwin has its own man pages with some conflicts, these man pages
are installed under /usr/share/man/linux/, so by default searching
or viewing these pages requires the option:

	$ apropos -m|--systems linux ...
	$ man -m|--systems linux ...

Cygwin man pages are under the default system "man", so for convenience
both systems may be specified separated by comma e.g.

	$ man -m man,linux ...

The path or option may also be added explicitly to a users MANPATH or
alias e.g.

	$ export MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/share/man/linux

	$ alias apropos='apropos -m man,linux'
	$ alias man='man -m man,linux'

Add -a to show both Cygwin and Linux manual pages if present, or swap
the order to prioritize Linux.

Release 6 added some section 2 and 3 pages suffixed by const, head,
or type installed in the base section directory.

For recent changes, please see below, or after installation read
/usr/share/doc/man-pages-linux/Changes:


man-pages-6.02		2022-12-22

Global changes

* Use correct letter case in manual page titles, instead of uppercase.
* Use \" t comments when appropriate (Lintian needs this).
* SYNOPSIS:
  - Add _Nullable for functions that receive NULL as a meaningful input.
  - Use VLA syntax to clarify the meaning of size parameters, rather
    than hiding it in possibly-confusing text. This syntax is not
    accepted by any compilers, though.
  - Use [[noreturn]] instead of noreturn, which will be deprecated soon.
* Repository documentation:
  - Added significant documentation about the repository and the project
    in the root of the repository in different files.  Starting from the
    README, anyone passing by should be able to understand how the
    project works and be directed to other documentation files. These
    files also document the release process.
  - Michael has been busy lately, and he is no longer maintaining the
    project. The in-repository documentation mentioned above has been
    updated to reflect that.
