Summary: manpages have bad whatis entry
Original Submission: lintian report:
Each manual page should start with a `NAME' section, which lists the name and a
brief description of the page. These sections are parsed by `mandb' and stored
in a database for the use of `apropos' and `whatis', so they must be in a
certain format. This manual page apparently uses the wrong format and cannot be
parsed by `mandb'.
For information on how `NAME' sections should be written and a list of some
common mistakes, please see the lexgrog(8) manual page.
