[Bug 924685] [NEW] Compiz man pages are out of date, and should really be upstream

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Test case: man compiz
You will see outdated information.

Sure, we could fix this easily, but it's surprising to see that the man
pages don't come from upstream. They come from debian branches only...

/usr/share/man/man1/compiz.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/compiz-decorator.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/compiz-decorator.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/gtk-window-decorator.1.gz

I suggest:
1. The source for the man pages needs to be copied upstream into lp:compiz-core, and an appropriate install rule added.
2. The man pages in lp:compiz-core then need to be updated with the latest command line options (several old options need deleting).
3. Re-sync lp:compiz from lp:compiz-core and update debian/ in lp:compiz. Removing the old man pages.
