Package: samba-common
Version: 3.0.24-6
Severity: minor


Bug 266230 (supposedly fixed) reports problems with the man page for smb.conf.

When I do man smb.conf, the listing shows artifacts, such as:
	"Any line ending in a “#8221; is continued on the next line in the customary UNIX fashion."
Also, if I try the folowing:
	LANG=en_US MANWIDTH=132 man -7 smb.conf > smb.conf-man7w.lst
I get the following on stdout:
	Reformatting smb.conf(5), please wait...
