Actually it does! https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/scour/scour.1.en.html It gets generated in debian/rules with help2man. > *** /home/marnanel/src/scour/scour.1 > .TH scour 1 "Date: 2025/12/15 22:45:00" "Scour" > .SH NAME > scour \- an SVG optimiser and cleaner > .SH SYNOPSIS > .TP > \fBscour\fP \fB[\fP \fIoptions\fP \fB... ]\fP \fIinput.svg output.svg\fP > .SH DESCRIPTION > \fBscour\fP is an SVG optimizer/cleaner written in Python that reduces > the size of scalable vector graphics by optimizing structure and removing > unnecessary data. > > It can be used to create streamlined vector graphics suitable > for web deployment, publishing/sharing or further processing. > > The goal of \fBscour\fP is to output a file that renders identically at a > fraction of the size > by removing a lot of redundant information created by most SVG editors. > Optimization > options are typically lossless but can be tweaked for more aggressive > cleaning. The description is not too different to the --help output, I think it has all the necessary information. If you think some difference is important, it would IMHO be better to send an upstream PR to chage the help output, and I can pull it into the Debian package. The options should be the same, and in fact it's better (from the distribution point of view) to produce them from the --help output to keep it up to date. Thanks, Martin
