Package: man-db Version: 2.5.7-6 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Hi,
I noticed that some localized manual page descriptions are not showed correctly with lexgrog or apropos. These examples are pages from the po4a package: $ apropos -L es po4apod-display-po po4apod-display-po (1) - (unknown subject) $ apropos -L fr po4apod-display-po po4apod-display-po (1) - Afficher un document POD traduit (`a partir dun PO. There are two issues in the French pages: “(`a” should be “à“ and “dun“ should be “d'un”. Note that this page is built from a DocBook XML source file. I also notice another one: $ apropos -L fr Locale::Po4a::Ini Locale::Po4a::Ini (3) - convertit des fichiers INI depuis ou vers des fichiersPO “fichiersPO” should be “fichiers PO”. Note that the manual pages are displayed correctly, maybe a preprocessor is lacking when apropos or lexgrog is called for these pages. $ zcat /usr/share/man/fr/man1/po4aman-display-po.1.gz | grep NOM -A1 .SH "NOM" po4aman-display-po \- Afficher une page de manuel traduite \(`a partir d\*(Aqun PO\&. $ zcat /usr/share/man/es/man1/po4aman-display-po.1.gz | grep NOM -A1 .SH "NOMBRE DE REFERENCIA" po4aman-display-po \- Muestra una p\('agina de manual traducida de acuerdo a un fichero PO $ zcat /usr/share/man/fr/man3/Locale\:\:Po4a\:\:Ini.3.gz | grep NOM -A2 .SH "NOM" .IX Header "NOM" Locale::Po4a::Ini \- convertit des fichiers \s-1INI\s0 depuis ou vers des fichiers \&\s-1PO\s0 Regards David -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (600, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (150, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.34-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages man-db depends on: ii bsdmainutils 8.0.13 collection of more utilities from ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.15.8.5 Debian package management system ii groff-base 1.20.1-10 GNU troff text-formatting system ( ii libc6 2.11.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-9 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime man-db recommends no packages.
