Package: debhelper Version: 10.2.5 Severity: minor dh_installwm(1) says that the slave man page is optional: The window manager's man page is also registered as a slave symlink (in v6 mode and up), if it is found in usr/share/man/man1/ in the package build directory. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
However dh_installwm's code does not entirely agree with that: if (! compat(9)) { error("no manpage found (creating an x-window-manager alternative requires a slave symlink for the manpage)"); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ } Regards, robert -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (990, 'testing'), (990, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii autotools-dev 20161112.1 ii binutils 2.28-6 ii dh-autoreconf 14 ii dh-strip-nondeterminism 0.035-2 ii dpkg 1.18.24 ii dpkg-dev 1.18.24 ii file 1:5.30-1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.18.24 ii man-db 2.7.6.1-2 ii perl 5.24.1-4 ii po-debconf 1.0.20 debhelper recommends no packages.
