Mark, Thanks for looking into this!
| all All warnings except di, mac, and reg. It is intended | that this covers all warnings that are useful with | traditional macro packages.
Admittedly, I overlooked this ... unusual that "all" means "all, but not..." :-) But good to get it clarified.
defining ZZ before attempting to use it; inserting the following anywhere before the first use of .ig would suffice: .de ZZ ..
A very useful trick indeed! It's probably too much to make of this minor issue, but if several tests were being performed, using the different --warnings=*, it may be possible to work out different kinds of errors and also be able to give that ".de" recommendation to the user.
I disagree. lintian is checking a manpage; the fact that doing so invokes nroff is an implementation detail.
Fair enough. I guess this bug can be closed, then. Cheers, Morten
