[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#1075941: /usr/share/man/man8/zfs-mount-generator.8.gz: documentation error (touch, di not exist)

[lopiuh]

Package: zfsutils-linux
Version: 2.1.11-1
Severity: minor
File: /usr/share/man/man8/zfs-mount-generator.8.gz
X-Debbugs-Cc: lopiuh at gmx.de

Dear Maintainer,

https://manpages.debian.org/testing/zfsutils-linux/zfs-mount-generator.8.en.html
states "# touch /etc/zfs/zfs-list.cache/poolname". The problem is, that the directory does not exist initially, so the touch will fail. Maybe we can optimize the wording on the manpage.

Yours lopiuh
