Subject: [patch], suffixes(7): Warnings from "grotty"
Date: Fri, 18 May 2012 17:41:54 +0000
Package: manpages
Version: 3.27-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
[Also sent to upstream, "linux-man" and "mtk.manpages"]
From "man ..." ("nroff ..."):
grotty:<standard input> (<standard input>):1763: character above first line discarded
grotty:<standard input> (<standard input>):2688: character above first line discarded
grotty:<standard input> (<standard input>):3286: character above first line discarded
The culprit is "Dl 0 -xxxx" (vertical line) where "xxxx" is
one line (40 nroff units) to long. Or there is a bug in
"grotty". "nroff" or "tbl" makes an empty line where a page
break is.
