forwarded 380559 https://github.com/uwabami/rdtool/issues/12
thanks

I can't tell whether this was ever actually forwarded upstream. It is not in the GitHub issues, which have existed since 2011.

The bug has not been fixed, so I have filed a new issue upstream.

A resolution doesn't look promising, as there's been no upstream updates for almost 2 years, but we'll see. :)

Package: rdtool

Severity: important


rd/rd2man-lib.rb gives no means of generating a man page for a
seciton other than 1.

The source includes the line:

.TH #{title} 1 "#{Time.now.strftime '%B %Y'}"

That "1" is hard-coded, and means that all man pages, even those put
in other sections, will say (1) in them.

Farther up it has:

OUTPUT_SUFFIX = "1"

I suspect (not knowing an Ruby at all) that putting something in the
man page saying how to set OUTPUT_SUFFIX *and* changing the .TH line
to use it would solve the problem.
