I can reproduce this in Maverick amd64 and Maverick i386 with yelp
2.30.1-0ubuntu1 and alltray 0.69-1ubuntu4, and in Natty i386 with yelp
2.30.2-0ubuntu1 and alltray 0.71b-1. (I don't have a Natty amd64 system
to test this on.) On the Maverick systems, the page displays as in
Simon's screenshot. In Natty, the spacing in the alltray manpage is
wrong for only part (not all) of the OPTIONS list. I've attached a
screenshot showing this.

At first, I didn't think I could reproduce this bug, because in general,
yelp renders whitespace in manpages just fine on my systems. Then I
decided to install alltray and try it with that. It appears that the
problem is only in rendering some manpages (or perhaps only in rendering
alltray's manpage). For example, the list of command-line options in the
manpage for the ls command is rendered fine.

In all three cases, when I ran yelp from a terminal, it printed this to
the command line (which it does not usually do):

Unmatched element: HP

I'm not sure if that's relevant.
