Package: man-db
Version: 2.5.6-2
Severity: wishlist
It seems there is just no thing as an ASCII bullet list these days?
$ LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/man perlfunc|perl -nwe 'print if /^\s+\?/'|head -n 3
? Each letter may optionally be followed by a number
giving a repeat count. With all
? The "a", "A", and "Z" types gobble just one value, but
pack it as a string of length
? Likewise, the "b" and "B" fields pack a string that many
bits long. Each character
Maybe the ?'s should be o's. Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.
What about people using the console?

Description:
man-db - on-line manual pager
Closes: 547695 553623 554914 555331
Changes:
man-db (2.5.6-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Backport from trunk:
- If the locale encoding is ASCII, then use the ascii device even if
preconv is available; it will do a better job than producing UTF-8
output and then recoding that to ASCII (closes: #547695).
- Include <unistd.h> in src/encodings.c for dup and STDIN_FILENO
(closes: #553623).
- When invoking col, ensure that LC_CTYPE is set to an appropriate
locale for the selected character set (closes: #555331).
* Add man-db/auto-update debconf template, which may be preseeded to false
to disable rebuilding the database when man-db is triggered (closes:
#554914).
