Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight. Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable. $ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml

|
|
<para><command>systemd-cat</command> may be used to connect the
|
|
standard input and output of a process to the journal, or as a
|
|
filter tool in a shell pipeline to pass the output the previous
|
|
pipeline element generates to the journal.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If no parameter is passed, <command>systemd-cat</command>
|
|
will write everything it reads from standard input (stdin) to the
|
|
journal.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If parameters are passed, they are executed as command line
|
|
with standard output (stdout) and standard error output (stderr)
|
|
connected to the journal, so that all it writes is stored in the
|
|
journal.</para>

<example>
|
|
<title>Invoke a program</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This calls <filename noindex='true'>/bin/ls</filename>
|
|
with standard output and error connected to the journal:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting># systemd-cat ls</programlisting>
|
|
</example>
|
|
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title>Usage in a shell pipeline</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This builds a shell pipeline also invoking
|
|
<filename>/bin/ls</filename> and writes the output it generates
|
|
to the journal:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting># ls | systemd-cat</programlisting>
|
|
</example>
|
|
|
|
<para>Even though the two examples have very similar effects the
|
|
first is preferable since only one process is running at a time,
|
|
and both stdout and stderr are captured while in the second
|
|
example, only stdout is captured.</para>
