There is a minor, but annoying, bug in the installation script
for SP-50 version 4.0 (Data Acquisition Software) which prevents
installation of the new manual pages for this product.
I wouldn't have noticed the bug except that my first crack
at the installation failed for unrelated reasons. This allowed me
to look at the subdirectories of /update before they were trashed.
I noticed that the man/man1 and man/man8 directories
had not been emptied. Context diffs follow.
