Your manpages will be in the next upload. And I'll look into the typo. Cheers, Christopher Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

In preparing the attached revisions, I noticed that there is a typo in (all?) of the other man pages in kdelibs-bin - I am sure it should be "...Version 2 or any later version..."^^ Johannes manpage.1'.

Since you don't allow Invariant Sections, etc., they are technically suitable for being shipped in Debian. However, the GFDL is still a problematic license, and we try to avoid it as much as possible. Would you be willing to relicense your manpages under the GPL? Most of our manpages are under that license already. Sorry for the hassle. Thanks, Christopher Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
