Package: texlive-extra-utils Version: 2023.20240207-1 Followup-For: Bug #1091785
As an upstream maintainer, I’ve now had several of these bug reports, and I’m a bit ambivalent about them. On the one hand, they seem to be accurate and well-intentioned. On the other, they are close to trivial, yet involve diffs that require careful reading if one is worried about what the changes may introduce. Also, I have had several reports that don’t apply to my project, because the faulty markup was generated by help2man. Since a PR was opened on GitHub for this issue, I have applied it upstream, but I’m not sure it’s really a good use of maintainer time in general, when the issues seem mostly to be trivial. I would be happier if this sort of issue were brought to my attention by a linting pass when building the man pages, e.g. if it were a standard part of the GNU build system.
