Package: module-assistant
Version: 0.11.10
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,


Although the `unpack` sub-command is documented in the `--help` output,
it is not currently documented in the module-assistant(8) manual page,
which makes it harder to find for users consulting the man page.  I've
attached a patch which documents it.

Cheers,
Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] document unpack in module-assistant(8)

Although the `unpack` sub-command is documented in the `--help` output,
it is not currently documented in the module-assistant(8) manual page.
This commit adds some basic documentation similar to the other
sub-commands.
