Thanks :-)On this occasion I would like to ask a general question about ZFS man pages.
I am aware that the ZFS code was largely imported from FreeBSD. Hence the man pages. In zfs(8), for example, reference is made to jails, which most likely will not be implemented in NetBSD.
Is it realistic to remove these passages from the man page and at the same time to disconnect the corresponding parameters of the "zfs" command? Or would that make a later merge of newer ZFS code very difficult?
Of course this is not a top priority and for sure other things are more important. However, in my eyes, on the way to stabilization it would help to provide a more integrated, native user experience.
Kind regards Matthias
