Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.1.1.0
Severity: wishlist
Policy says that any binary must come with a manpage. I would like to have
the same for packages.
I just looked for a parser generator that outputs C++ code and found pccts.
After installation I tried "man pccts", but that failed.
/usr/doc/pccts doesn't contain examples, so how do I use the thing?
pccts in fact contains several binaries, but non is called pccts. The main
binary is called antlr and has a good manpage.
My suggestion is now, that "man pccts" should eigther point to the main
binarys manpage or show a page that gives a oneline description of the
binaries of the package or one that has just relevant "see also: xxx" entries.
What do you think?
May the Source be with you.
