That's a useful tool, thanks. It doesn't take package names, it takes binary program names, or more specifically, manual page names. So it works if the binary program name is in common with the package, but not otherwise, and not if there is no manpage for a program (which is a Debian policy violation, ยง12.1) -- ๐ฑ๐ป Jonathan Dowland โ j...@dow.land ๐ https://jmtd.net
