Thanks to some more help from Micah Anderson, I've got it down to one
lintian warning now:
W: onetime: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/onetime
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 name of the man page differs from the binary by case, man may
N: be able to find it anyway; however, it is still best practice to make
N: the case of the man page match the case of the binary.
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:
N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 12.1 for details.
Not yet sure why it's not finding "onetime.1". I'm following the
instructions here:

Watch this space for more.
