[Pkg-gmagick-im-team] Bug#856997: imagemagick: Missing ImageMagick man page

[Alfredo Canziani]

Package: imagemagick
Version: 8:6.8.9.9-7ubuntu5.4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * "convert(1)" says "SEE ALSO ImageMagick(1)" which is missing
   * "man ImageMagick" says "No manual entry for ImageMagick"
   * Expected result: getting the main man page

Here's the content of the imagemagick package used for man

   $ dpkg -L imagemagick | grep man
   /usr/share/man
   /usr/share/man/man1
   /usr/share/man/man1/stream-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/display-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/animate-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/mogrify-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/composite-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/montage-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/import-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/identify-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/conjure-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/convert-im6.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/compare-im6.1.gz

debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1/ImageMagick.q16.im6.1 is missing.

Here it has been removed:
