[Bug 637060] Re: Dash escaping in man pages

 

My comment #2 was largely FYI. Getting docbook setup to use the maxrpm
sources for man pages has always been hugely painful.

So just fix the troff directly. There are tags in cvs that can/will be used
to pull modifications into the maxrpm docbook eventually.

But if there are major rewrites (rather than spot fixes) of rpm man pages that
are going to be attempted, then docbook -> troff transforms are likely a
beetter approach because docbook can also hit other targets like XSLFO or
TeX seamlessly.
