Note: merge_whatis needs to be run to update the man pages.
Files in a whatis.frag directory have changed.
The merge_whatis is a shell script in /bin that creates and updates the whatis
database used by the OSS shell man, apropos, and whatis commands. You must
run the merge_whatis command once against each directory that contains the man
page files to be used.
You will run merge_whatis after the coldload. Running the merge_whatis
command is documented in Steps for Running ZPHIRNM on page 10-5.
If you have OSS configured to run the OSS merge_whatis utility automatically, you
can ignore running merge_whatis.
