Details

An updated man-pages-ja package that fixes multiple typos is now available.

The man-pages-ja package contains the manual pages from the Linux
Documentation Project translated into Japanese.

This updated package addresses the following bugs:

* modules loaded after sysctl was run could override parameters set in
sysctl and sysctl.conf. Man pages have been updated with information about
this process and suggestions as to how modifications can be retained by
the system across reboots. (BZ#451238)

* The bash(1), echo(1), wall(1), vmstat(8) and edquota(8) man pages
included in the previous releast of man-pages-ja contained several
typographical errors. These have now been corrected. (BZ#454048,
BZ#454419, BZ#457361, BZ#460688, BZ#493783)

All man-pages-ja users should upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues.
