Hi,
I was wondering how to install man pages in the X11 man directory with
dh_installman. I have read the manual, but it is not in there. Lintian
keeps giving me warnings about the manual being in the wrong place, so
now I put the X11 app in /usr/bin (shame on me!).. Please help me out.

You're not supposed to put the manpage wherever you want to, even if it is a X
program. dh_installman puts the manpages into their respective sections, e.g.
if you have foo.1, it'll be but on section 1. If you have foo.1x, it'll be but
at /usr/X11R6/man/man1 for being in

see policy 12.8:
_Packages using the X Window System should abide by the FHS standard
whenever possible_; they should install binaries, libraries, manual
pages, and other files in FHS-mandated
