Hi! I appreciate your attention to the manual bugs! For this one, I don't like this.

rcorder(8) is not the appropriate place to document what rc(8) does with rcorder(8)'s keywords, and rc(8) already says:

"should contain rcorder(8) keywords, especially an appropriate "PROVIDE" entry"

If that line is actually broken, we should fix that line instead of bolting on more bloat. When the manual is too bloated, people don't read it.

This revision now requires changes to proceed.Feb 9 2025, 10:17 PM

Is the fix for PR 121440 to close as not a bug?
I'm not sure what to do otherwise, based on your comment.

Please close PR:121440 since this change is not needed.
