Package: tilda
Version: 1.4.1-2.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Reading the tilda manual page, I saw

  The full documentation for tilda is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
  If the info and tilda programs are properly installed at your site,
  the command

        info tilda

  should give you access to the complete manual.

Problem is, there is no such Texinfo manual.  Running `info tilda` just
shows the manual page in the info browser :-/

I checked the upstream source tarball and did not find a Texinfo manual
there.  There is also no tilda-doc or similar package.

Please fix the manual page to *not* refer to the non-existent Texinfo
manual.

Hello,

Version: 1.5.0-1.1

thanks for taking the time to report this issue. The official man page
is here: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/tilda/-/blob/master/debian/tilda.1

But I want to change that and include the man page in the official
repository, because then other distributions could also pick it up more
easily, not sure when I find the time to do that. And you are of course
right, there is no texinfo manual, but this bug has already been fixed
in the latest version of tilda, see the following commit:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/tilda/-/commit/a4d2cd8d69a5cdf4bc55af32669076e4f7f3bcb8

I do not have time to do an update of the 1.4.1-2.1 package, since this
is already in a stable release and updating stable is an incredible
amount of work. So I am closing this.

Cheers
Sebastian
