    dpkg(1): clarify scope of --configure
    
    Robert Persson pointed out in
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/77287 that
    describing --configure as "Reconfigure an unpacked package" is simply
    wrong.  This patch clarifies its behaviour, and adds a helpful pointer
    to dpkg-reconfigure(8) (there's already one in the SEE ALSO section) for
    those who really want that instead.
