[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1138700: npm: manpage npm.1.gz has un-substituted placeholders (@VERSION, <!--, etc.)

Package: npm
Version: 9.2.0~ds1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the supplied npm(1) manpage is less useful than it could be, due to some 
error resulting in substitution place-holders not being replaced.  E.g.:

  Synopsis
         <!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS -->

  Version
         @VERSION@

I have not checked the other manpages.

Verified in trixie's version and also sid's (11.16.0+ds2-1)
