Package: groff-base Version: 1.23.0-2 This version of groff maps an unescaped "-" to HYPHEN rather than HYPHEN-MINUS. Due to that, copying text from manpages or following references in the "SEE ALSO" section is rather unreliable, because many manpages contain a plain "-" where they should have used "\-" instead.
Neither the upstream NEWS file nor the Debian changelog make any mention of this change, or how to revert it locally. Running "man" under LC_ALL=C works around it, at the cost of worse typography. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.186-nouveau (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages groff-base depends on: ii libc6 2.37-6 ii libgcc-s1 13.1.0-8 ii libstdc++6 13.1.0-8 ii libuchardet0 0.0.7-1 groff-base recommends no packages.
