Bug#357046: glabels: Manpage does not list all options

Package: glabels
Version: 2.1.2-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The mangpage of glabels / glabels-batch does not list all
options, most notably it ommits the option to select a file
to be merged. glabels-batch --help lists these options.

I suggest the following patch or something similar.
