Package: gnupg
Version: 1.2.4-4
Severity: normal
It is impossible to search for dashes in gnupg's man pages in a UTF-8
locale. This is annoying becuase one cannot quickly look up a command
line flag by searching for it.
The following is taken from groff-base's README.Debian:
> If you're using a UTF-8 locale and are having problems searching for

gpg.1 is a big man page, but I could send a patch if it will be possible
to get it in to Sarge.

I've checked and the current manpage of gnupg uses "\-" instead of "-",
so your problem has been fixed somewhere between 1.2.4-4 and now. I'm
closing this bug, thanks for reporting.
