Subject: pkg-config.1: Line 255 too long
Date: Sun, 07 Dec 2003 15:58:52 +0100
Message-Id: <E1AT0N2-0003cR-00@atari.antcom.de>

Package: pkg-config
Version: 0.15.0-3
Severity: minor

Hi,

line 255 in pkg-config.1 seems to be too long (and without whitespace)
to fit into a normal 80-char-terminal. Therefore, man always gives me
something like the following warning:

===========================================================================
Manual page pkg-config(1) line 1/tmp/zmanGYrctN:255: warning [p 4, 6.8i, div
`an-div', 0.0i]: cannot adjust line
/tmp/zmanGYrctN:255: warning [p 4, 6.8i]: cannot adjust line
===========================================================================

Thanks for considering.

bye,
  Roland

Created attachment 80 [details] [review]
Proposed patch

A couple of spaces do the trick. Plus, fix the placement of the comma before
the last macro argument.
