Package: libvte9
Version: 1:0.16.13-1+b1
Severity: normal
Debian Policy 12.1 states that all binaries *should* have a manual
(and it is a bug not to have one).
/usr/lib/libvte9/gnome-pty-helper, being a suid program, should be
documented better than most other programs (something gnome related
and suid? Blah!), but alas there is not even a manpage.
