Bug#291816: dpkg-divert man page doesn't contain sufficient basic usage examples



Package: dpkg
Version: 1.10.26
Severity: minor

I am not a DD and wanted to use dpkg-divert. I had to google for the
basic useage after I was unable to find an example in the dpkg-divert
man page.

bug fix:

add examples for:
dpkg-divert --package foo -add --rename --divert bar.real bar
and
dpkg-divert --package foo -remove --rename --divert bar.real bar

Thanks!
-Kev
