Package: microcom Version: 2012.06.0-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Current microcom(1) man page in testing (equal version as in Sid) has somewhat broken man markup (see patch). Escpecially the second case is serious, because the escaping key sequence will be mistaken as ^- instead of ^\ in the current version.
