As docbook2man generates foo.1 for all these files, it is not very convenient. Moreover dh_installman is able to handle translated manpages whose name looks like foo..1 So it would be nice if docbook2man did generate foo..1 instead of foo.1. A partial patch is attached to the bug report (not tested) Christian
