Bug#647281: [enchant] incomplete/outdated manpage for enchant
2011/11/1 Filipus Klutiero <chealer@gmail.com>:
> Package: enchant
> Version: 1.6.0-4
> Severity: normal
>
> enchant's manpage contains:
>
>> SYNOPSIS
>> enchant [-a] [-l] [-L] [-v]
>
> However, calling enchant without arguments outputs:
>
>> Usage: enchant [options] -a|-d dict|-l|-L|-m|-v[v]|<file>
>> -a lists alternatives.
>> -d dict uses dictionary <dict>.
>> -l lists misspellings.
>> -m is ignored.
>> -L displays line numbers.
>> -v displays program version.
>> chealer@vinci:~/logs$

> If you look at the output, you also notice it contains options not found in
> the manpage, suggesting the manpage is also outdated.
Thanks,
This has been already reported as part of Debian #546418. Today I
filed an upstream bug report and sent upstream a patch with proposed
changes for this, also including a couple of other Debian changes,

In the meantime, I will soon commit the part related to this bug report,
