Sorry for that wrong bug report : it only happens when I copy-paste
the file-line-error-style option from the man page, and _does_not_
happen when I type it directly. That's what I get for being lazy :-)


Ah, that is for sure a question of the utf locale.

Can you please close this bug ?


You could have done it yourself, by sending mail to
297524-done@bugs.debian.org.  However, I think there still *is* a bug:
Copy-and-paste from the manpage should give an ordinary ascii dash, not
those unicode dashes.  One part of the bug is probably in the manpages;
the pager used to view them might also be involved.

Can you please try it with the manpages I attach?  Look at them with
"man -l double.man" and "man -l all.man", respectively, and copy&paste
the line in question.  Does it work then?

With my original man page, I get the error mentionned above. With your double.man file, I get an error :
unrecognized option `--file‐line‐error‐style'
With your all.man file, the option works correctly.
