Package: dh-make
Version: 0.40
Severity: wishlist

There doesn't seem to be a manualpage*.ex file that could be filled in
for programs that do not include one. Please consider including one, where
the easiest to work with it the Perl POD format that can be converted
to apropriate page easily.

1) include these in the template in the default 'rules' file:

PACKAGE      = package
MANSECT      = 1
MANPOD       = debian/$(PACKAGE).$(MANSECT).pod
MANPAGE      = debian/$(PACKAGE).$(MANSECT)

...

install-manpod: 
        pod2man --center="Debian" \
                --name="User program" \
                --section=$(MANSECT) \
                $(MANPOD) \
        | sed 's,perl v[0-9.]+,$(PACKAGE),' \
        > $(MANPAGE)

##   -- Uncomment as needed --
##   Then use: dh_installman debian/$(MANPAGE)
#install: install-manpod

install: build

        ...

2) Include this text as debian/manpage.section.pod.ex

#  This is manual page in Perl POD format. Read more at
#  http://perldoc.perl.org/perlpod.html or run command:
#
#     perldoc perlpod | less
#
#  To check the syntax:
#
#     podchecker *.pod
#
#  Create manual page with command:
#
#    pod2man PAGE.N.pod > PAGE.N

| Hello,
|   In your bug report you wrote:
| "There doesn't seem to be a manualpage*.ex file that could be filled
| in..."
| 
| but there are several that dh_make uses; in nroff, sgml and xml.

In the laste dh_make the files seems to be there. It may be 
possible that 'rm *.ex' was done by accident.

Thanks,
Jari
