Package: debhelper
Version: 11.5.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

In dh_installman manpage it states that "In compat 11 and later, it
supports the same features of dh_install(1) and has the advantage that
it respects the nodoc build profile (unlike dh_install(1))."

But if I'm putting the path to a directory in the debian/manpages file,
dh_installman fails with:

Something like:
dh_installman: Could not determine section for debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1

Is that expected?

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
