temcbun_gmail.com abandoned D58328: mktemp.1: Improve the .Nd description.

temcbun_gmail.com added a comment to D58328: mktemp.1: Improve the .Nd description.

Thanks for the ping. So I dug in a little further. The existing description is actually aligned with a library, mktemp.3 which has the same description. It can make not only directories, but pipes and fifos and... (etc) which are all normalized to files. Further, mktemp was written by Todd C Miller and even has a website https://www.mktemp.org/ and seems to have the same Nd in every single OS because we're all using the same implementation. So, we should not change it. In fact perhaps it should be in contrib/ to make that more obvious but I do not want to grind that axe.

This line was forgotten to be updated when information about st_birthtime was first added into the manual page.

Nice, so we want to find that commit and put it at the bottom of the commit message like Fixes: <shorthash> ("Commit title").

ziaee accepted D58329: pw.conf.5: Make the .Nd more informative.

Document descriptions should not have crossreferences especially, but really any child macros.
Manpage compiler upstream has said (quite strongly and hilariously actually) it's wrong.

But where exactly does it say this?

I have not reviewed this because all I know about colors is how to turn them off, drives me crazy. Maybe... @dteske might know?
