Bug#1063470: debsums: man page documents removed "--generate=keep" option

[Ben Harris]

Package: debsums
Version: 3.0.2.1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

The man debsums(1) man page says:

       -g, --generate=[missing|all][,keep[,nocheck]]
...
              keep   Write      the      extracted/generated      sums      to
                     /var/lib/dpkg/info/package.md5sums.

However, if I try to use the "keep" option, debsums reports:

wraith:/tmp$ debsums --generate=all,keep,nocheck debsums_3.0.2.1_all.deb
debsums: the --generate=keep option has been removed and does nothing. at /usr/bin/debsums line 847.

Since the option no longer does anything, it should either be removed 
from the man page or documented as doing nothing.
