Version: 2.2.5-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

  Warning from "groff":

<gpg-check-pattern.1>:19 (macro BR): only 1 argument, but more are expected

Output is from: test-groff -b -e -mandoc -T utf8 -rF0 -t -w w -z 

  [ "test-groff" is a developmental version of "groff" ]

###

  Summary of changes:

Use correct font for "options" (denotes variable text)

Split long lines (> 80) (and make only the first word bold)

Change a two-fonts macro to an one-font macro for a singular argument

###

  Details:

Test nr. 16:

Use the correct macro for the font change of one argument.
Split a punctuation mark from the only argument if one is there

19:.BR \-\-check

#####

Test nr. 42:

Split lines longer than 80 characters into two or more lines.
Appropriate break points are the end of a sentence and a subordinate
clause.
