Package: groff-base
Version: 1.18.1.1-17
Severity: normal
Hi,
as brought up on debian-devel, please bring back support for the UR and
UE macros used to implement links like in a similar fashion the URL macro
does (but on several lines instead). Quite some packages are using UR/UE
rather than URL for their manpages.
See also: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/03/msg00326.html
Thanks!
Best regards,
Martin

licence, and manual page authors should copy any macros they use from
it to the preamble of their manual pages in order to ensure
