Bug#863737: fpc: Please add manpage for ppc68k command
Source: fpc
Version: 3.0.0+dfsg-11
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-68k@lists.debian.org

Hi!
Since building src:fpc successfully requires a manpage for the native
ppc$CPU binary, we need to add one for ppc68k as well since the package
source is currently not shipping one.
I have just created a copy of the corresponding patch for arm64 to add
a manpage (add_arm64_manpage.patch) and reg-replaced all occurrences
of "ppca64" with "ppc68k".
Please include the patch with the next upload. With the changes from
#863589 [1], fpc can be built on the buildds for m68k without any
problems.
Thanks,
Adrian
