Hi Colin,
Chris Leick in #651219 made me aware of a man-page(7) convention in the
SEE ALSO section you may wish to respect in this package, even if those
advises are especially meant for the Linux man-pages project.
SEE ALSO provides a comma-separated list of related man
pages, ordered by section number and then alpha‐
betically by name, possibly followed by other
related pages or documents. Do not terminate
this with a period.
Please find attached a patch addressing this issue. Except for man(1),
there should be no translation unfuzzy needed (for po4a-handled
manpages), and I hope I didn't abuse of 'po4a'hide' in man(1).
Cheers
David
P.-S.: Totally unrelated to this issue; I noticed you are stuck with
some untranslated strings in the --help output [0], are you aware of any
solution about this? dctrl-tools doesn't use Gnulib, but EGLIBC, and is
victim of the same problem, do you have any advice to fix it?
0: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html//bug-gnulib/2008-03/msg00144.html
P.-P.-S. Even more unrelated; I was pretty pleased (and impressed
actually) to meet you this summer, I was quite speechless, sorry about
that, C&W was not enough to overcoming shyness, but I hope to meet you
again in the future.
