 Hi 
 
 I just ran into the problem you already reported here:
   http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=372510
 
 It should be fixed by writing .TH instead of TH at the start of
 line 104 in the file iconv.1.  (That was the easy part for me.)
 
 But since I'm completely ignorant of the Debian bug fixing process, could
 you please forward this and make sure it gets to the one responsible for
 it?

Bug#372510: libc6: iconv(1) man page has syntax errors

[Bastian Kleineidam]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.6-15
Severity: minor

Hi,

the iconv(1) man page displays syntax markup on my system:
$ man 1 iconv
TH ICONV 1 etch 20/Jun/2004 Debian GNU/Linux iconv -
Convert encoding of given files from one encoding to another
iconv -f encoding -t encoding inputfile The iconv program
converts the encoding of characters in inputfile from one coded
character set to another. The result is written to standard
output unless otherwise specified by the --output option.
--from-code, -f encoding Convert characters from encoding.
--to-code, -t encoding Convert characters to encoding.  --list,
-l List known coded character sets.  -c Omit invalid characters
from output.  --output, -o file Specify output file (instead of
stdout).  --silent, -s Supress warnings.  --verbose Print
progress information.  --help, -?  Give help list.  --usage Give
a short usage message.  --version, -V Print program version.
iconv was written by Ulrich Drepper as part of the GNU C Library.
This man page was written by Joel Klecker [EMAIL PROTECTED], for
the Debian GNU/Linux system.

I have PAGER=less set, same result with PAGER=more or PAGER=cat.


Regards,
  Bastian
