Hi Marco,

thanks for your bug report. The manpage with the typo is in the package "apt", 
so I'm reassigning the bug.

Regards,
Tobias

Package: manpages
Version: 4.16-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

   Reading man page of package apt: `man apt'

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

   A typo fix to the documentation. Specifically, this sentence:

   """
   The requested action can be overridden for specific packages by
   append a plus (+) to the package name to install this package or
   a minus (-) to remove it.
   """

   formulated as such:

   """
   The requested action can be overridden for specific packages
   by appending a plus (+) to the package name to install this package
   or a minus (-) to remove it.
"""
