Package: bossa-cli
Version: 1.3~20120408-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Cristian Maglie's patches added in bossa 1.3~20120408-2 implement two new
bossac command line switches (-U and -R). These options should be documented in
the bossac man page.

I attached two files to this message, each of which independently resolves the
problem. The first is a minimally invasive patch which adds the two new options
to the bossac man page and nothing more. The second is a completely new man
page I wrote for bossac. It includes a better description of the program, more
documentation on each option (including the two new ones), a proper copyright
notice, and code that is hopefully easier to read and maintain. You can apply
either one (or neither), but I recommend the new man page.
