The first simply removes some odd blanks/formatting from bzip2.1. The second adds the --help option to the manual and man page. The last one adds generation of bzip2.txt and bzip2.1.preformatted to the Makefile, so they are freshly generated when doing a dist. [PATCH 1/3] bzip2.1: remove blank spaces in man page and drop the .PU macro [PATCH 2/3] Mention the --help command line option in the manual [PATCH 3/3] Add generation of bzip2.txt and bzip2.1.preformatted to Makefile Ideally the bzip2.1 man page itself would be generated from the manual.xml file. But I saw that on Debian even the pdf and html generation of the manual seem to fail. Debian does have a xml-manual-escape.diff patch, which escape special characters in XML source of the manual' but that seems wrong to me. The special characters don't seem special in xml, only in the html. So when applied the characters get escaped twice. Does Debian regenerate the manual, and if so, does it do it differently than how it is done through the upstream xmlproc.sh script? Thanks, Mark
