Bug#372510: libc6: iconv(1) man page has syntax errors



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.6-15
Severity: minor

Hi,

the iconv(1) man page displays syntax markup on my system:
$ man 1 iconv
TH ICONV 1 "etch" "20/Jun/2004" "Debian GNU/Linux" iconv -
Convert encoding of given files from one encoding to another
iconv -f encoding -t encoding inputfile The iconv program
converts the encoding of characters in inputfile from one coded
character set to another. The result is written to standard
output unless otherwise specified by the --output option.
--from-code, -f encoding Convert characters from encoding.
--to-code, -t encoding Convert characters to encoding.  --list,
-l List known coded character sets.  -c Omit invalid characters
from output.  --output, -o file Specify output file (instead of
stdout).  --silent, -s Supress warnings.  --verbose Print
progress information.  --help, -?  Give help list.  --usage Give
a short usage message.  --version, -V Print program version.
iconv was written by Ulrich Drepper as part of the GNU C Library.
This man page was written by Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>, for
the Debian GNU/Linux system.

I have PAGER=less set, same result with PAGER=more or PAGER=cat.


Regards,
  Bastian
