Package: rdtool
Version: 0.6.20-1
Severity: important
rd/rd2man-lib.rb gives no means of generating a man page for a
seciton other than 1.
The source includes the line:
.TH #{title} 1 "#{Time.now.strftime '%B %Y'}"
That "1" is hard-coded, and means that all man pages, even those put
in other sections, will say (1) in them.
Farther up it has:
OUTPUT_SUFFIX = "1"
I suspect (not knowing an Ruby at all) that putting something in the
man page saying how to set OUTPUT_SUFFIX *and* changing the .TH line
to use it would solve the problem.
