Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. zypper install glibc-html 2. desktop-launch 'file:///usr/share/doc/glibc/Name-Service-Switch.html#Name-Service-Switch' 3. Tell the browser to follow to "frobnicate". Actual Results: 2. Various functions in the C Library need to be configured to work correctly in the local environment. Traditionally, this was done by using files (e.g., /etc/passwd), but other nameservices (like the Network Information Service (NIS) and the Domain Name Service (DNS)) became popular, and were hacked into the C library, usually with a fixed search order (see frobnicate). 3. Podany plik lub katalog /usr/share/doc/jargon/frobnicate.html nie istnieje. Expected Results: 3. The link is broken in the master copy [1] as well, so I really cannot tell. I guess the referenced resource should explain the search order in NSS. If the referenced resource is supposed to be the Jargon File entry for frobnicate [2], that resource adds nothing to the subject and should not be referred to. ___ [1] URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Name-Service-Switch.ht...
