Hi,
For reports concerning the bash manual, the tarballs (5.2, 5.2.15)
and the Git repository say to Chet Ramey's address (both in the
man page and in the HTML file). But
https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Reporting-Bugs.html
says "Please send all reports concerning this manual to bug-bash@gnu.org."
This is inconsistent.
They're different manuals. The texinfo manual follows the GNU conventions
for reporting bugs. Since the GNU project disdains man pages, I started
out with having man page bugs come to me, and I've never changed it.
