Of course we can always not do something. Doesn't mean that we "can't"
(or "cannot"). In any case make the messages consistent and move the
period to inside the quotes.

there is no more makewhatis

Use new makemandb -Q flag to be really quiet.

Call `makemandb -f -q` instead of `makemandb -f`, as Edgar Fuß proposed for daily.

PR/46521: Jim Bernard: remove duplicate -o

Run makemandb with the normal 022 umask, not the restrictive 077.

Import the new apropos/whatis.

This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.

The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.

Add rebuild_whatisdb weekly variable that defaults to NO.
This is for running makewhatis weekly.
This defaults to NO because it is not needed using just base sets/default

Run the "su -m nobody -c locate.updatedb" in a subshell with cd / first.

Avoid the output "Running xxx.local" if the "xxx.local" script
does not produce any output. This matches what /etc/security
already does with /etc/security.local output.

Introduce and use the rcvar_manpage variable, which contains the manual page
name where the user should look at for documentation about rcvar. It defaults
to 'rc.subr(5)', as rc.subr is mainly used by rc.d scripts.

This variable is useful to let the daily, weekly, monthly and security scripts
tune the warning message shown when any of the variables they handle is not
properly set.

Closes PR misc/23908.

use mktemp(1) to create temporary directories, and ensure that cleanup traps
are setup asap.

Setting rebuild_locatedb=NO should not tell you it didn't rebuild the db
because there is no /var/db/locate.database; it should be quiet.

Unified the use of `echo ""'.

use ${foo##*/} instead of `basename $foo`. as suggested (with minor variation)
by Toru Nishimura <nisimura@itc.aist-nara.ac.jp>

- Make /etc/daily run /etc/daily.local if it exists. Make similar change for
weekly and monthly scripts.
- Update FILES section in manpages.

Get rid of old-style chown operands.

Minor cleanup.
