Hi,

I have looked at it and I'm a bit confused...

Do I understand correctly that the errata refer to the LSB specification?

The problem is that the LSB specification, as published on the web, does not 
contain any documentation which seems to be referred to by the errata. The 
LSB specs contains only lists of functions without any explanation, only with 
references to SUS, POSIX, and other specs, but no documentation (which, by 
the way, means it is unusable by itself unless I buy all the fat books of 
POSIX, SuS, etc. :-( ).

But the errata document seems to contain fixes for the documentation. So, is 
it in fact meant as errata to the POSIX or SUS documentation?

Or am I looking at some reduced, abbreviated version of the LSB specs, and the 
original has all the info?

Best regards,

    Jiri Dluhos
