            Bug ID: 197003
           Summary: devd(8) man page needs update for /etc/devd/ and
                    /usr/local/etc/devd/
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bugzilla.freebsd at omnilan.de

Accidentally, while running devd(8) in debug/foreground mode I noticed the
following output:
Parsing /etc/devd.conf
…
Parsing files in /etc/devd
…
Parsing files in /usr/local/etc/devd

/etc/devd/ was obvious, although not documented, since there are conf files
populated in base.
But /usr/local/etc/devd/ was new to me.
Both directories are not mentioned in DEVD(8), nor referenced in DEVD.CONF(5).

If someone has a reccomendation for a CLI-man-page editor besides vi(1)&co (I'm
not familar with formatting tags), I'd do my best preparing a
non-native-speaker's diff. Have alwas been curious how people write/edit man
pages…

I checked against "FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE #0: Mon Sep  6 18:31:39 CEST 2010" and
"FreeBSD 10.1-STABLE+FP1 #0 r277168M"
