Bug#844232: daisy-player: man page title is wrong if build directory isn't named ${package}-${version}



Hi Daniel,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that daisy-player could not be built reproducibly, due to `txt2man -p`
parsing the last component of the build directory.

While upstream (thanks Jos) already accepted your patch, I challenge your approach. While this CAN be fixed in each package that uses txt2man, shouldn't txt2man be fixed instead (I don't see why the parent directory should matter for the output)? At least, can you explain why you didn't go that route?
