Hello,

the lintian checker in Debian reports, that the manual page of
texi2dvi.1 has a bad whatis entry. It refers to the output of lexgrog,
which fails to parse.

hille@sid-amd64:~/devel/TeXLive/github/texinfo$ lexgrog texi2dvi.1
texi2dvi.1: parse failed

Patch for Debian is trivial [1], but the file seems to be generated by
help2man. Let me know if this is eventually an issue in the help2man
generator.

Thanks,
  Hilmar
