Package: flex
Version: 2.5.39-3
Severity: serious

Dear Manoj,

(opening this bug just to prevet flex reach testing)


This commit [1] introduced a bug in rules files (probably a typo)

-override_dh_installman:
+verride_dh_installman:

this prevents the override_dh_installman to be executed.

Also changing the changelog after a release is not a good pratice (a typo of 
course), would be nice to have it reverted

How do you feel about fixing if they are bugs?

Sorry for the "serious" severity, but I don't think this package should reach 
testing...
Feel free to downgrade if it was intended.
