Package: apvlv Version: 0.0.8.1-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch The English in the manpage isn't always correct and it is formatted in a (IMHO) unusual way, leading to suboptimal output when viewing it on a small terminal (like "MANWIDTH=80 man apvlv").
I rewrote the manual with the -mdoc macros and tried to fix some weird english sentences and add some more explanations where neccessary. I hope this doesn't break any developer workflow (since it seems to me that the manual was created from apvlv's Startup.pdf) ;-) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apvlv depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.28.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4.2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.2-6 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.5-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpoppler-glib4 0.12.2-2 PDF rendering library (GLib-based ii libstdc++6 4.4.2-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 apvlv recommends no packages. apvlv suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
