Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.14
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
When man returns an error (on a compressed manpage), the errors starts
with the roff filename (which points to a temporary file when the manpage
is compressed).
The attached patch fixes a typo in the manpage check, which caused the
roff filename not to be removed from the extra informations lintian
displays.
Without this patch, I can't remove the following warning:
W: passwd: manpage-has-errors-from-man usr/share/man/de/man1/passwd.1.gz
/tmp/zman11fUeg:143: missing closing delimiter
