freebsd-update: improve mandoc db generation Authored by emaste on Apr 4 2021, 8:40 PM. Tags None Referenced Files
Details @bdrewery reported a concern with mandoc db generation in D10482. I am not sure exactly what happened, but it does appear that the logic will fail if there is no existing mandoc.db to compare against with find -newer. $ test -z "$(find . -type f -newer /does/not/exist)" && echo true find: /does/not/exist: No such file or directory true
