[DRE-maint] Bug#1142323: ruby: No manpage for binary /usr/bin/rdbg

[Sven Geuer]

Package: ruby
Version: 1:3.3+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the package contains symlink /usr/share/man/man1/rdbg.1.gz pointing to
file rdbg3.3.1.gz which does not exist. In addition, there is no other
file rdbg*.?.gz besides the broken link, not even in other manpage
sections:


$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man?/rdbg*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 12. Feb 2025  /usr/share/man/man1/rdbg.1.gz -> rdbg3.3.1.gz

Seems there is no manpage for rdbg. Normally, lintian would complain
about this fact but apparently gets fooled by the link.

Please provide a manpage.

Cheers,
Sven
