Bug#926988: gengetopt: Package long description is outdated
Package: gengetopt
Version: 2.22.6+dfsg0-2
Severity: minor
Gengetopt does not generate a skeleton main.c (presumably it once did);
instead, it generates a command-line parser, and a header.
I suggest the following wording for the long description:
gengetopt reads an interface description file, and writes a file containing
a command-line parser function. gengetopt supports: long and short options,
11 types of parameters (including flag, int, double, string, and function
call), and a usage message.
