better, but there are still problems found by lintian:

I: rumor: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/rumor.1.gz:65
N: 
N:    Manual page seems to contain a hyphen where a minus sign was intended.
N:    "-" chars are interpreted as hyphens (U+2010) by groff, not as minus
N:    signs (U+002D). Since options to programs use minus signs (U+002D), this
N:    means for example in UTF-8 locales that you cannot cut&paste options,
N:    nor search for them easily.
N:    
N:    "-" must be escaped ("\-") to be interpreted as minus. If you really
N:    intend a hyphen, write it as "\(hy" to emphasise that fact. See groff(7)
N:    and especially groff_char(7) for details, and also the thread starting
N:    with
N:    http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2003/debian-devel-200303/msg01481.h
N:    tml
N:    
N:    If you use some tool that converts your documentation to groff format,
N:    it might be possible that this tool converts dashes of any kind to groff
N:    hyphens, while the safe way of converting dashes is usually to convert
N:    them to "\-".
N:    
N:    Because this error can occur very often we show only the first 10
N:    occurrences for each man page and give the number of suppressed
N:    occurrences. If you want to see all warnings, run lintian with the
N:    -d/--debug option.

W: rumor: description-synopsis-might-not-be-phrased-properly
N: 
N:    The synopsis (first line in the package "Description:" field, the short
N:    description) ends with a full stop "." character. This is not necessary,
N:    as the synopsis doesn't need to be a full sentence. It is recommended
N:    that a descriptive phrase is used instead.
N:    
N:    Note also that the synopsis is not part of the rest of the
N:    "Description:" field.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 3.4.1 (The single line synopsis)
N:    for details.
N:    
N:    Severity: normal, Certainty: possible
N: 
W: rumor: extended-description-line-too-long
N: 
N:    One or more lines in the extended part of the "Description:" field have
N:    been found to contain more than 80 characters. For the benefit of users
N:    of 80x25 terminals, it is recommended that the lines do not exceed 80
N:    characters.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 3.4.1 (The single line synopsis)
N:    for details.

N: 
W: rumor: info-document-missing-dir-section usr/share/info/rumor.info.gz
N: 
N:    This info document has no INFO-DIR-SECTION line and no --section option
N:    is passed to install-info in the package postinst maintainer script.
N:    install-info will be unable to determine the section into which this
N:    info page should be put. The best solution is to add a line like:
N:    
N:      @dircategory Development
N:    
N:    to the texinfo source so that the generated info file will contain a
N:    section. See /usr/share/info/dir for sections to choose from.
N:    
N:    Another alternative that doesn't require modifying the source is to
N:    explicitly pass a --section option to install-info in the postinst
N:    maintainer script, although in this case you will need to write the
N:    postinst yourself and not use tools like debhelper to do it for you.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 12.2 (Info documents) for details.
