-dh_installman is a debhelper program that handles installing
+B<dh_installman> is a debhelper program that handles installing
man pages into the correct locations in package build directories. You tell
it what man pages go in your packages, and it figures out where to
-install them based on the section field in their .TH line. If you have a
-properly formatted .TH line, your man page will be installed into the right
+install them based on the section field in their B<.TH> line. If you have a
+properly formatted B<.TH> line, your man page will be installed into the right
directory, with the right name (this includes proper handling of pages
-with a subsection, like "3perl", which are placed in man3, and given an
-extension of ".3perl"). If your .TH line is incorrect or missing, the program

+extension of F<.3perl>). If your B<.TH> line is incorrect or missing, the program
may guess wrong based on the file extension.
It also supports translated man pages, by looking for extensions

+If B<dh_installman> seems to install a man page into the wrong section or with
the wrong extension, this is because the man page has the wrong section
-listed in its .TH line. Edit the man page and correct the section, and
-dh_installman will follow suit. See to L<man(7)> for details about the .TH
-section. If dh_installman seems to install a man page into a directory
-like /usr/share/man/pl/man1/, that is because your program has a
-name like "foo.pl", and dh_installman assumes that means it is translated
-into Polish. Use --language=C to avoid this.
-
-Any man page filenames specified as parameters will be installed into the
-first package dh_installman is told to act on. By default, this is the
-first binary package in debian/control, but if you use -p, -i, or -a flags,
-it will be the first package specified by those flags.
-
-Files named debian/package.manpages can list other man pages to be
-installed.

-After the man page installation step, dh_installman will check to see if

+section. If B<dh_installman> seems to install a man page into a directory

+name like F<foo.pl>, and B<dh_installman> assumes that means it is translated
+into Polish. Use B<--language=C> to avoid this.

+After the man page installation step, B<dh_installman> will check to see if
any of the man pages in the temporary directories of any of the packages it
-is acting on contain ".so" links. If so, it changes them to symlinks.
+is acting on contain F<.so> links. If so, it changes them to symlinks.
+
+Also, B<dh_installman> will use man to guess the character encoding of each
+manual page and convert it to UTF-8. If the guesswork fails for some
+reason, you can override it using an encoding declaration. See
+L<manconv(1)> for details.
