Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 3.16
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
The man page confusingly refers to "header" config key, when the correct key is
"headers". I noticed this because apticron package warned:
apt-listchanges warning: Unknown configuration file option: header
The change should be made on line 497 in file:
https://sources.debian.org/src/apt-listchanges/3.16/doc/apt-listchanges.xml/
I will also file a bug against apticron.
Thank you.
