I confirmed. Well, manpages in ja_JP.eucJP haven't a problem. This lintian warning message is caused by following lines of /usr/share/lintian/checks/manpages: open MANERRS, '-|', "(LANG=C man -l unpacked/\Q$file\E >/dev/null) 2>&1" or fail("cannot run man -l: $!"); while (<MANERRS>) { # ignore progress information from man next if /^Reformatting/; next if /^\s*$/; # ignore errors from gzip, will be dealt with at other places next if /^(man|gzip)/; # ignore 8bit character errors on localized man pages next if /warning: can\'t find numbered character/ && $lang ne ""; chomp; s/^[^:]://o; tag "manpage-has-errors-from-man", "$file", "$_"; last; Opening manpages written in non latin language with "LANG=C" may cause a problem. Lintian ignores "warning: can' find numbered character" when manpage directory has a language code, but I think "cannot adjust line" and "can't break line" should be ignored also.
