I wasn't able to get any comments from any of those commands you have
suggested. It should be easier to reproduce your results.

I get this without doing any changes

This should also be done automatically in salsa CI.

Some of those changes were already in git. I have applied the other
suggested changes.

But, I am not going to do all those manual checks in the future. I don't
have the time and the understanding of groff to do that. This should be
in lintian and salsa-ci.

Thanks for submitting the patch. It has helped to make the man pages
better.
