Great, thanks Andreas.

>> In general, the kmc 2.3 package is currently in a state in which it builds and lintian looks good except for the missing man page for the new ‘kmc_tools’ executable (and its various sub-tools). It seems to be not trivial to automate generating man pages from the help output, as ‘kmc_tools’ does not like to work well with help2man and the current automation seems quite specific...

Makes sense, but for something with as may subtools such as kmc_tools I usually try to avoid manually maintaining the man pages if possible… but maybe it is the easiest way to get going here for an update.

Cheers,
Sascha
