Package: groff-base
Version: 1.22.4-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
There is a bug in groff 1.22.4 that causes groff to print a diagnostic
to stderr when an argument to .Lk starts with a dot:
troff: man/SSL_CTX_set_max_cert_list.3:126: name expected (got '\c'):
treated as missing
This issue is reproducible by rendering man/SSL_CTX_set_max_cert_list.3
in LibreSSL-portable with groff -mdoc;
you may have to pipe to something other than less(1) to see the
diagnostic.
This has been fixed in upstream groff 1.22.4 (but reportbug(1) wouldn't
let me tag this fixed-upstream for some reason) in git commit
76e4db6e839904d2e2a28b29b483678214598f3b on 2019-01-12.
I've tested the attached patch and it seemed to resolve the issue for
me.
Thank you for your time.
