Bug#377899: xserver-xorg: man of a non man page



Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.19
Severity: minor

$ grep 'man /etc/X11/xorg.conf' /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
But that's not a man page, so say "man xorg.conf" instead.

Also there we see
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
OK,
# dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg postinst warning: not updating /etc/X11/X; file has been
   customized

This message causes no confidence to be instilled in the user that
/etc/X11/xorg.conf will now be updated automatically. It's not even
talking about the same file.
