Package: manpages Version: 6.16-1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: Alejandro Colomar <[email protected]>
Hello Tobias,
if you look at mansect(1), the example given does not work in Debian.
I reported this upstream and got the following reply:
> The issue is that Debian compresses manual pages. Please consider

Could you consider this?
Less preferred would be a Debian patch to the man pages, stating what
a Debian user would have to do to achieve the purpose of mansect(1).
