Bug#326666: xorg-x11: Line scrambling in some X man pages, due to the groff .ds request



Package: xorg-x11
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hello,

I mentionned this on the debian-x mailing list [0] [1].

I choose to fix it the hard way: inlining most of the .ds requests.
(I found some other kinds of issue: sometime the construct with the .ds put
2 spaces, put a space before a coma, or put 2 dots at the end of a line)
I did not remove the .ds defined in the headers, which I found mostly
harmless.

So please, find attached 3 files:
 * dot_ds.patch
   It does most of the work.
 * dot_ds_bonus.patch
   It removes some other reference to strings (but there wer no .ds for
   those). Please, review it more carefully.
 * check
   I used this script to check that I did not remove a .ds definition and
   let a reference to that string.
