Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0~a46-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Hi,

double quoted arguments in command line switches descriptions are not formatted
correctly.

Note, the sequence \" is meant to start a comment in groff, it does NOT escape
the double quote character.
See: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/info2www?(groff)Strings

Anyway when a string is between [ and ] we don't need to escape double quote
at all.

And when we really want to escape it inside a double-quotes-delimited string
we must use "" (that is two consecutive double quotes characters) to actually
print a single double quote.

The attached patch fixes these two problems I found in lh_config.en.1

Regards,
   Antonio Ospite

right, sorry. since the bug was still open, i was concluding that it
must have been fixed after the last upload. however, the reason for that
it has been open is, that the commit message did not have had a
'(Closes: #nnnnn)'.
