However minimalistic, everyone want's to access help with: man <command> | ...if he would submit it to | the yasm developers. Then all distributions of yasm would benefit. He may already have. But waiting upstream may not always be the best strategy for users[1] You could also ping upstream. The more contacts, the merrier. I would just copy the pages from Debian and in a dark, rainy autum day, nothing else to do, improve them together. Jari [1] Given yasm's track record for releases, progress is slow. The same Debian developer has maintained the package since 2006, so he may have been in contact already. http://packages.qa.debian.org/y/yasm.html
