fixurjavainstall: Previous Fuji versions can accidentally wipe `/usr/share/man/man8`

Published

📋 Description

Impact

Affects: Anyone who generates the UNIX man pages in Fuji <= 0.8.0 build with the dev crate feature. Consequences: /usr/share/man/man8 may be entirely removed & re-created without any of the previous entries.

Patches

At the time of writing, no new version has been released on crates.io, due to an unrelated CI/CD publishing issue. Due to the same unrelated publishing issue, no new GitHub Releases version has been released.

Workarounds

Do not run fuji manual on non-dev builds for versions <= 0.8.0.

Additional Information

This bug results from development-only code being accidentally left in for release use. Previous versions of Fuji are still "safe" to use, provided that you do not run fuji manual. There is no malicious potential from this, it's just a major annoyance to accidentally remove all your sysadmin man pages.
