Re: Man Page did not update when upgrading

[Wayne Sallee]

   I use my lfs build: [1]http://waynesallee.com/linux.html
   I installed rdiff-backup from source. Then later upgraded from source.
   On your computer terminal, if you type man rdiff-backup, and scroll
   down to the bottom, you will see the version number. But if you go to
   the webpage [2]https://rdiff-backup.net/rdiff-backup.1.html , and
   scroll down to the bottom, there is no version number.

I didn't understand this statement.

    I downloaded rdiff-backup-2.2.5 and installed, but the man page did
    not get updated.
    My man page is still Version 1.2.8
    Any advice?

Did you perhaps mix package (RPM, DEB,...) and pip installation, or root and non
-root installation?

KR, Eric
