==================== Changes in man-pages-3.68 ====================

Released: 2014-05-28, Munich


New and rewritten pages
-----------------------

localedef.1
    Marko Myllynen, Richard Braakman, Alastair McKinstry, Lars Wirzenius
        New page for localedef(1)
            Add new page based on Debian localedef(1) page.


Changes to individual pages
---------------------------

locale.1
    Marko Myllynen
        Provide a step-by-step example of how to use a custom locale

fork.2
    Michael Kerrisk
        ERRORS: add pid_max and threads-max to EAGAIN
            And rewrite text to be the same as pthread_create(3).

proc.5
    Michael Kerrisk
        'pid_max' is a system-wide limit on number of threads and processes
            Since PIDs > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max are not allocated, this
            file thus also imposes a system-wide limit on the number of
            threads and processes.

capabilities.7
    Michael Kerrisk
        CAP_SYS_ADMIN allows overriding RLIMIT_NPROC
    Michael Kerrisk
        CAP_SYS_PTRACE allows process_vm_readv(2) and process_vm_writev(2)

inotify.7
    Heinrich Schuchardt
        Add example program
            This example of the usage of the inotify API shows the
            usage of inotify_init1(2) and inotify_add_watch(2) as well
            as polling and reading from the inotify file descriptor.

locale.7
    Marko Myllynen [Michael Kerrisk]
        Document the LOCPATH environment variable
