Package: libpdf-api2-perl
Version: 0.69-1
Severity: minor
Hello,
mandb's crontab complains thus:
/etc/cron.daily/man-db:
/usr/bin/mandb: warning: whatis for PDF::API2::Page.3pm.gz exceeds 2048 bytes,
truncating.
/usr/bin/mandb: warning: whatis for PDF::API2::Outline.3pm.gz exceeds 2048
bytes, truncating.
Looking at those manual pages, it appears that they are broken, see:
[...]
.SH "NAME"
PDF::API2::Outline \- outline management
.ie n .SH "$otl = PDF::API2::Outline\->new $api,$parent,$prev"
^ ^^^
1 2
1 should not be here
2 should be at the beginning of a line.
It is likely that the other manual pages are also broken this way: for
instance:
~ whatis PDF::API2::Resource
PDF::API2::Resource (3pm) - - generic PDF::API2 resource class n .SH "$res =
PDF::API2::Resource->new $pdf,...
They only don't trigger the problem because their text is less long.
I'm unsure whether this is a bug in the structure of the original pages or if
it is a pod2man problem.
Regards,
Vincent Fourmond

Description:
man-db - on-line manual pager
Closes: 217519 354321 463892 466396 467249 467444 473862
Changes:
man-db (2.5.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
- Make /usr/local/share/man mandatory rather than /usr/local/man
(thanks, Reuben Thomas; closes: #463892).
- Whatis parsing stops at .ie or .if conditionals (closes: #467444).
- In the CJK UTF-8 special case, check the canonicalised encoding in
order that locale specifications such as "zh_CN.utf8" work (closes:
#467249).
- Improve 'man -E' to allow overriding the output encoding explicitly,
rather than implicitly (and unreliably) by changing the *roff device
(closes: #466396).
- Don't emit encoding conversion errors in mandb's quiet mode (closes:
#473862).
- Clean up some loose ends of Chinese support, adding zh_SG and EUC-TW
support (thanks, Wu Songhai; closes: #354321).
- Fix jless support to avoid breaking less (closes: #217519).
* Backport from trunk:
- #include <string.h> in lib/cleanup.c for memset.
