Bug#349792: manpage-has-errors-from-man: false positives with Japanese pages



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.14
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello,

On http://lintian.debian.org/reports/Tmanpage-has-errors-from-man.html,
10% of the warnings are "cannot adjust line" or "can't break line" on
Japanese pages.
Most of them are false positives and man do not warn on a ja_JP locale.

The attached patch hides these two warnings on Japanese pages.

Kind Regards,
