Package: hledger Version: 1.14.2-1 Severity: normal I noticed the man page references to hledger_journal(5), but man 5 hledger_journal does not work.
I was going to say it's not included in the binary package, but actually
it is, because hledger embeds in its binary all its documentation and
hledger help journal will display it.
That is documented on the man page, but you'd have to read the whole
man page to find out about it. (Or the source code, which is actually
how I found it.)
I don't see much reason to not include the documentation as regular
documentation files in this package?
(There are good reasons[2] for hledger to embed the documentation in the
binary. One is that, when installing it from source with cabal,
limitations in cabal make installing man pages and stuff hard enough
that it's probably not worth the bother[1]. That reason does not apply
to this package though.)

[1] I say, having done it.
[2] Another being that it lets hledger balance --help output an excerpt
of the man page documenting the balance command, which is really
quite nice.
