Package: expect Version: 5.45.4-3 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
here are some notes and editorial fixes for the manual. The patch is in the attachment. -.- The difference between the formatted outputs can be seen with: nroff -man <file1> > <out1> nroff -man <file2> > <out2> diff -u <out1> <out2> and for groff, using "printf '%s\n%s\n' '.kern 0' '.ss 12 0' | groff -man -Z - " instead of "nroff -man" Add the option "-t", if the file contains a table. Read the output of "diff -u" with "less -R" or similar. -.-. If "man" (man-db) is used to check the manual for warnings, the following must be set: The option "-warnings=w" The environmental variable: export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value) or (produce only warnings): export MANROFFOPT="-ww -z" export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value) -.-. Output from "mandoc -T lint expect_mkpasswd.1": (possibly shortened list) mandoc: expect_mkpasswd.1:51:96: STYLE: input text line longer than 80 bytes: flag defines the min... mandoc: expect_mkpasswd.1:56:96: STYLE: input text line longer than 80 bytes: flag defines the min... mandoc: expect_mkpasswd.1:61:83: STYLE: input text line longer than 80 bytes: flag defines the min... -.-. Change a HYPHEN-MINUS (code 0x2D) to a minus(-dash) (\-), if it is in front of a name for an option, is a symbol for standard input, is a single character used to indicate an option, or is in the NAME section (man-pages(7)). N.B. - (0x2D), processed as a UTF-8 file, is changed to a hyphen (0x2010, u[2010]) in the output. 39: mkpasswd -l 20 47: mkpasswd -d 3 85: mkpasswd -l 15 -d 3 -C 5 -.-. Split lines longer than 80 characters into two or more lines. Appropriate break points are the end of a sentence and a subordinate clause; after punctuation marks. expect_mkpasswd.1: line 51 length 96 flag defines the minimum number of lowercase alphabetic characters that must be in the password. expect_mkpasswd.1: line 56 length 96 flag defines the minimum number of uppercase alphabetic characters that must be in the password. expect_mkpasswd.1: line 61 length 83 flag defines the minimum number of special characters that must be in the password. -.-. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.7.12-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=is_IS.iso88591, LC_CTYPE=is_IS.iso88591 (charmap=ISO-8859-1), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages expect depends on: ii libc6 2.38-11 ii libtcl8.6 8.6.14+dfsg-1 ii tcl-expect 5.45.4-3 ii tcl8.6 8.6.14+dfsg-1 expect recommends no packages.
