Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: normal
I've noticed lintian has started warning about non-definition of IX.
Officially the test is supposed to ignore these warning, but it would seem
that groff's warning format has changed, since I get the warning:
W: am-utils: manpage-has-errors-from-man usr/share/man/man8/fixmount.8.gz 58: warning: macro `IX' not defined
The following tiny patch fixes the issue:
