Bug#1359: man tgetent fails to find anything




Package: ncurses-developer
Version: 1.9.4-0

This is a resubmission of the man bug 1342

man tgetent fails to find anything.

The problem is that the man page is specified with the name filed
as:

NAME
       termcap: tgetent, tgetflag, tgetnum, tgetstr, tgoto, tputs
       - direct curses  interface  to   the  terminfo  capability
       database

The : is confusing man, it resolves these subname as references to

termcap: tgetent
tgetflag
tgetnum
tgetstr
tgoto
tputs

All is OK if the : is changed to a ,
