Package: nmh
Version: 1.5-release-1

Hello,

The nmh package installs a manpage usr/share/man/man1/scan.1.gz. This 
lead in the past to bug #654810, which at that time was solved by
dvb-apps declaring a Conflict with nmh. This conflict could be avoided
if nmh renamed its scan.1 manpage to scan.1mh.gz. This is in
fact mandated by the File Hierarchy Standard [1] :

  In addition, some large sets of application-specific manual pages have an
  additional suffix appended to the manual page filename. For example, the
  MH mail handling system manual pages must have mh appended to all MH
  manuals.

Could you please rename the manpage accordingly? 

Thanks -Ralf.
