Package: lxdm
Version: 0.5.3-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
There's a typo in the manpage where it talks about how to run
update-alternative --config lxdm.conf
instead of
update-alternatives --config lxdm.conf
Please see the attached patch which adds the missing character in
the command name.
This issue was originally discovered and reported in Ubuntu, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxdm/+bug/1690351
