>Description:
The man page for lintpkgsrc is broken because the nroff source uses
the ' (apostrophe) character in the first column of a couple lines.
This removes everything up until the next apostrophe.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install lintpkgsrc and type "man lintpkgsrc".
Read the sections for the -g and -u flags.
>Fix:
The fix is to simply use the .Ql macro instead of apostrophes in lines
81, 86, 112, and 139 in lintpkgsrc.1. For example, line 112:
'make fetch-list | sh' to ensure all the distfiles needed for
would become
.Ql make fetch-list | sh
to ensure all the distfiles needed for
