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.
