man pages question
Dear mentors,
I got these warnings in lintian for my package, having no idea how to solve this issue.
I probably have to manage to same man pages opening like this:
man jack-jconv
will be opened on these too:
man jconv
man fconv
man mkwavex
Am I right?
please can somebody advise me?
regards
mira

N:
N: Each binary in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /sbin or /usr/games should
N: have a manual page
N:
N: Note that though the man program has the capability to check for
N: several program names in the NAMES section, each of these programs
N: should have its own manual page (a symbolic link to the appropriate
N: manual page is sufficient) because other manual page viewers such as
N: xman or tkman don't support this.
N:
N: If the man pages are provided by another package on which this package
N: depends, lintian may not be able to determine that man pages are
N: available. In this case, after confirming that all binaries do have
N: man pages after this package and its dependencies are installed,
N: please add a lintian override.

N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 12.1 for details.
