Package: devscripts Version: 2.25.19 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
The manpages for debian-watch version 5 format seem to prefer Capitalized-Hyphened names as canonical names, but some examples still uses the old variant (e.g. Searchmode, instead of Search-Mode). The attached proposed patch changes those to the preferred version. (I tried to create an MR but currently Salsa gave me an error saying the source branch didn't exist. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.) -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.16.3+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.22.21 ii file 1:5.46-5 ii gpg 2.4.8-3 ii gpg-agent 2.4.8-3 ii gpgv 2.4.8-3 ii libdpkg-perl 1.22.21 ii libfile-dirlist-perl 0.05-3 ii libfile-homedir-perl 1.006-2 ii libfile-touch-perl 0.12-2 ii libio-string-perl 1.08-4 ii libmoo-perl 2.005005-1 ii libwww-perl 6.78-1 ii patchutils 0.4.2-1 ii perl 5.40.1-6 ii python3 3.13.7-1 ii sensible-utils 0.0.26 ii wdiff 1.2.2-9 Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii apt 3.1.5 ii curl 8.16.0~rc2-1 ii dctrl-tools 2.24-3+b1 ii debian-keyring 2025.07.26 ii debian-tag2upload-keyring 1.1 ii dput 1.2.4 ii equivs 2.3.2 ii git-debpush 13.13 ii libdistro-info-perl 1.14 ii libencode-locale-perl 1.05-3 ii libgitlab-api-v4-perl 0.27-1 ii libjson-perl 4.10000-1 ii liblwp-protocol-https-perl 6.14-1 ii libmetacpan-client-perl 2.033000-1 ii libsoap-lite-perl 1.27-3 ii libstring-shellquote-perl 1.04-3 ii liburi-perl 5.30-1 ii licensecheck 3.3.9-1 ii lintian 2.123.0 ii lzip 1.25-3 ii man-db 2.13.1-1 ii patch 2.8-2 ii pristine-tar 1.50+nmu2 ii python3-apt 3.0.0 ii python3-debian 1.0.1 ii python3-magic 2:0.4.27-3 ii python3-requests 2.32.4+dfsg-1 ii python3-unidiff 0.7.5-2 ii python3-xdg 0.28-2 ii strace 6.16+ds-2 ii unzip 6.0-29 ii wget 1.25.0-2 ii xz-utils 5.8.1-1 Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii adequate 0.17.6+b1 pn at <none> ii autopkgtest 5.50 pn bls-standalone <none> ii build-essential 12.12 pn check-all-the-things <none> ii debhelper 13.26 pn diffoscope <none> pn disorderfs <none> pn docker.io <none> ii dose-extra 7.0.0-6+b3 pn duck <none> ii elpa-devscripts 40.7 pn faketime <none> ii gnuplot-nox [gnuplot] 6.0.3+dfsg1-1 pn how-can-i-help <none> ii libauthen-sasl-perl 2.1900-1 pn libdbd-pg-perl <none> ii libgitlab-api-v4-perl 0.27-1 pn libterm-size-perl <none> ii libtimedate-perl 2.3300-2 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.903.0+ds-1 ii mailutils [mailx] 1:3.20-1 ii mmdebstrap 1.5.7-3 ii mutt 2.2.13-1 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:10.0p1-8 ii piuparts 1.6.0 ii postgresql-client-17 [postgresql-client] 17.6-1 pn pristine-lfs <none> ii python3-debianbts 4.1.1 pn python3-pycurl <none> ii quilt 0.68-1 ii ratt 0.0~git20250812.e11cf12-1 ii reprotest 0.7.30 pn svn-buildpackage <none> ii w3m 0.5.3+git20230121-2.1 -- no debconf information
