Package: txt2man
Version: 1.4.8-1
Severity: important
Manpages generated by txt2man do not correctly escape hyphens. While
this doesn't seem to cause any problems with some locales, this ends up
making hyphens disappear when man pages are viewed with many locales.
(Including en_US.UTF-8, which is one reason I noticed this in the first
place!)
This bug is actually pretty important, because I use txt2man to generate
man pages for most of my packages! =)
The fix is to make all hyphens in the output file be backslash escaped,
i.e. '\-' instead of plain '-'. I haven't looked at the code yet, but I
may be able to submit a patch for this.
