Package: x3270
Version: 3.3.7p2-1
Severity: normal

The upstream man page for x3270, at
http://x3270.bgp.nu/x3270-man.html, includes 19 sections, from "Fonts"
through "Proxy", that have apparently been deleted from the man page
in Debian.  At least some of that information is important.  I needed
the Keymap and Keypad sections to try to diagnose bug #480788.

With those sections missing, one problem is that x3270(1x) says "See
KEYMAPS below", but there is no such section.

If the missing information is for some reason not suitable for
inclusion in Debian, then could you please at least include a link to
the upstream HTML man page?  A link to the upstream docs would be very
useful anyway, as there is other important information there for
configuring x3270, especially in
http://x3270.bgp.nu/documentation-misc.html .  Or maybe the contents
of the html directory in the source archive could be included in
/usr/share/doc/x3270 ?

Thanks,
Andrew.
