Package: gdal-bin
Version: 1.7.3-2
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/man/man1/gdalinfo.1.gz

You had better add some examples as to how to use the program.

$ file *
a.dbf: DBase 3 data file (366 records)
a.shp: ESRI Shapefile version 1000 length 198980 type Polygon
a.shx: ESRI Shapefile version 1000 length 1514 type Polygon
$ gdalinfo a.shp
ERROR 4: `a.shp' not recognised as a supported file format.

gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'a.shp'.
