Bug Description

Binary package hint: coreutils

The man page for chroot implies that there is a complete manual on the info page...

SEE ALSO
       The full documentation for chroot is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and chroot programs
       are properly installed at your site, the command

              info chroot

       should give you access to the complete manual.

... However, the info page is identical to the man page.

Version: 5.96-5ubuntu4

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Confirmed on Feisty Fawn Herd 5 with coreutils version 5.97-5.2ubuntu3. Looking at the package listing only the info file for coreutils exists. This could be worked around by using 'info coreutils'.

Changed in coreutils:
importance: Undecided → Low
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed
