Package: licensecheck
Version: 3.3.9-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The man page for licensecheck(1) is misformatted as verbatim
"=item"s are included:

| […]

| ENVIRONMENT
|        […]

|        LOG_LEVEL =item QUIET =item VERBOSE =item DEBUG
|        =item TRACE
|              Used to emit varying details about discoveries
|              to STDERR when  verbosity  is  not  set  using
|              either  of options --quiet, --verbose, --debug
|              or --trace.  See Log::Any::Adapter::Screen for
|              more details.

|        […]

The attached patch will format this instead as:

| […]

| ENVIRONMENT
|        […]

|        LOG_LEVEL
|        QUIET
|        VERBOSE
|        DEBUG
|        TRACE Used to emit varying details about discoveries
|              to STDERR when verbosity is not set using
|              either of options --quiet, --verbose, --debug
|              or --trace.  See Log::Any::Adapter::Screen for
|              more details.
