Public bug reported:

[SRU Justification]

== Impact

When noble released the DEP-8 test failures were accepted (magration/0).
Fixing up the other (kernel related) issues, the last part of the
testsuite that fails is the checker which verifies the man pages.

== Fix

This has been fixed in upstream iproute2 by 3 changes:

- [PATCH] man: allow up to 100 character lines
- [PATCH] ip-link: use shorter URL to kernel docs
- [PATCH] man: fix man page errors

Those changes are part of iproute2-6.7.0, so only noble would be
requiring the changes.

== Testcase

1. ADT tests for iproute2 running successful

== Regression potential

The changes are only to the checker which is run for DEP-8 testing (100
character lines) or the man pages. The only difference users might see
is in the man pages displayed.
