Package: bsign
Version: 0.4.5
Severity: minor

I was checking out the bsign man page, and was following the example syntax
for creating and verifying a hash, but I got stumped when it said:

  $ bsign --check-hash /bin/bash
  $ parse error 2 at word 132635

It seems that upon closer inspection, the man page has a typo. The "COMMANDS"
section correctly says "-c, --checkhash", but the "EXAMPLES" section shows the
syntax as "bsign --check-hash file" (note the hyphen), which bsign considers as
unknown syntax.

Aside from the minor typo, perhaps a more descriptive error message could help?
